Detected exemption language

As you indicated that you were not appealing against the redaction of information under section 38(1)(b) of FOISA (personal information), I have restricted the scope of this review to the application of exemptions under section 30(c) (substantial prejudice to effective conduct of public affairs) and section 33(1)(b) (commercial interests). This is because some of the information that was previously withheld is now in the public domain and so the application of the exemption cannot be upheld. I have reconsidered the application of the exemption under section 30(c) of FOISA (substantial prejudice to effective conduct of public affairs) to some of the information you have requested. This exemption is subject to the ‘public interest test’. Therefore, taking account of all the circumstances of this case, I have considered if the public interest in disclosing the information outweighs the public interest in applying the exemption.
