The complainant has requested information associated with particular meetings. The University of Oxford (-˜the University') disclosed some information and withheld the remainder under sections 31(1), 36(2)(b), 40(2) and 43(2) of FOIA. These exemptions concern law enforcement, prejudice to the effective conduct of public affairs, personal data, and commercial interests respectively. The Commissioner's decision is as follows: The University is entitled to rely on sections 36(2)(b)(i) and 36(2)(b)(ii) to withhold information within scope of the complainant's request. Section 40(2) isn't engaged in respect of the information redacted from material that the University disclosed. The University hasn't disclosed all the relevant, non-exempt information within FOIA's 20 working day requirement and so has breached sections 1(1) and 10(1).The Commissioner requires the University to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: Regarding the papers that the University has released, disclose to the complainant the redacted personal data in the two RSSC Unreserved Agenda documents, and the redacted information in the MSDB standing order paper, MSDB Information Technology Committee minutes paper, and the MSDB agenda paper. If it hasn't already done so, disclose the paper discussed at paragraph 10 of this notice, with any personal data appropriately redacted.
