|dn_summary=The complainant requested information on the commission payments made by investment managers on behalf of Hertfordshire County Council (�the Council�). The Council claimed that the information was exempt on the basis that the exemption in section 41 (information held in confidence) applied. Whilst the Council did not seek to withhold the information on the grounds that the exemption in section 43(2) (commercial interests) applied, the Commissioner has considered whether the Council would have been justified in applying this exemption. The Commissioner�s decision is that the exemption in section 43 was engaged by the information however the public interest in disclosing the majority of the information overrides the public interest in maintaining the exemption. He also decided that the exemption in section 41 was partially applicable. However, the public interest defence inherent in the common law of confidence also meant that a disclosure of the majority of the information would not be actionable in law. The exemption was therefore not engaged by this information. The Commissioner�s decision is that the information should be disclosed, with minor redactions.
