Some of the addition information we have provided has been redacted because an exemption under section 38(1)(b) (personal data relating to third party) of FOISA applies.
An exemption applies
This exemption under section 38(1)(b) applies because it is personal data relating to an identified or identifiable natural person, such as the names, email address and phone numbers. Disclosing it would contravene the data protection principles in Article 5(1) of the General Data Protection Regulation and in section 34(1) of the Data Protection Act 2018. This exemption is not subject to the ‘public interest test’, so we are not required to consider if the public interest in disclosing the information outweighs the public interest in applying the exemption.
