In response to subsequent requests, the HSE disclosed some information but withheld the remainder of the information held under the exemptions provided by sections 40(2) and 41 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the Act). In particular, the HSE maintains that its findings in the investigation are not held. The Commissioner’s decision is that the public authority no longer holds the requested information.
