As a local authority we have directors of service who have PAs. Director's
are contacted usually through their PA's through a specific number i.e.
2000. The director themselves have a direct line - say 2001 - but this is
not common knowledge outside of the organisation.
We now have an FOI request asking for the direct numbers of the directors.
To be honest it's likely that, in practice, these are camped on to their
PA's but that is besides the point.
A phone number doesn't identify someone as such so I don't think we can
claim it as personal information, however could we claim that revealing
this number would be prejudicial to our business (e.g. Section 36) in
managing the workload of our directors?
