Date: 27-03-2017
Case Number: 160434
Public Body: Health Service Executive
Section of the Act.: s.9
Summary: The Senior Investigator found that the OPW was justified in refusing access to the records under section 36(1)(b) of the FOI Act. In finding that, on balance, the public interest would not be served by granting the request, she noted, among other things, that this particular tender process did not result in the award of the concession.

Case Number: 160552
Public Body: Department of Social Protection
Section of the Act.: s.15, s.15(1)(a),
Summary: The Senior Investigator varied the Council's decision. She found that the Council had not justified its effective reliance on section 15(1)(a) of the FOI Act in relation to additional records the applicant contended should have been considered for release. She annulled this effective refusal and directed the Council to consider this aspect of the request afresh. Of the details that had been considered and withheld, she found certain information to attract legal professional privilege and to be exempt under section 31(1)(a). The Senior Investigator directed the release of the rest of the information the Council had withheld under that section. She found all of the information that the Council had withheld under section 36 to be exempt under section 36(1)(b) of the FOI Act, but directed the release of parts of the records concerned under sections 36(2)(a) and 36(3)

Section of the Act.: s.15, s.15(1)(a),
Summary: The Senior Investigator affirmed the Commission's decision to refuse access to the requested records.

She found the public interest in granting the request did not, on balance, outweigh the public interest in upholding the T.D.'s right to privacy.

Case Number: 160564
Public Body: Houses of the Oireachtas
Section of the Act.: s.37
Summary: The Senior Investigator affirmed the HSE's decision. She found that section 15(1)(a) of the FOI Act applies to the applicant's request insofar as it relates to additional records. She found that section 37(1) and section 37(7) of the FOI Act apply to the records to which access was refused in full or in part by the HSE, 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 of privacy of those individuals should be upheld.
Date: 13-03-2017
Case Number: 160349
Public Body: HSE
Section of the Act.: s.37
Summary: The Senior Investigator affirmed the Department's refusal of the withheld information, on the basis that it comprised personal information about individuals other than the applicant, and/or the joint personal information of the applicant and other individuals, and was exempt under sections 37(1) and/or 37(7) of the FOI Act. She found that the public interest in granting the applicant's request for the information concerned did not outweigh the public interest that the right to privacy of the individuals to whom the information relates should be upheld.
