Summary: The Senior Investigator affirmed the Council?s decision. She found that section 37(1) of the FOI Act applies to the records to which access was refused by the Council, as release of these records would involve the disclosure of personal information of individuals other than the applicant, and the public interest that the request should be granted does not outweigh the public interest that the right to privacy of those individuals should be upheld.

Summary: The Senior Investigator found that Revenue was justified in its decision to refuse access to the withheld records.
