- Summary
-
The complainant has requested the information in an email chain relating to Surrey Council Council’s Home to School Transport policy. The Council disclosed the first email in this chain but considered the remaining information was exempt from disclosure under section 42(1) of the FOIA as it attracted legal professional privilege. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council has correctly applied section 42(1) and the public interest favours maintaining the exemption and withholding the information.
