The complainant has requested from Imperial College London (the College) correspondence with public relations companies/individuals relating to two academic papers that were published. The College initially applied section 14 of FOIA to refuse the request, and subsequently identified and disclosed one email but denied holding any further information within the scope of the request. The Commissioner's decision is that, on the balance of probabilities, the College does not hold any further information within the scope of the request. However, in failing to confirm it holds one email and disclose it within the statutory timeframe, the College breached section 1 (general right of access to information) and 10 (timescale for compliance) of FOIA. The Commissioner does not require any further steps to be taken.
