The public authority refused to confirm or deny whether it held information falling within the scope of the request. During the course of the Commissioner�s investigation the public authority sought to rely on sections 30(3), 40(5) and 43(3) of the Act.

The Commissioner also identified some procedural breaches of the Act by the public authority related to a failure to initially identify that it was relying on sections 30(3), 40(5) and 43(3) to neither confirm nor deny whether it held the requested information.
