Tim,
Just to check. If the applicant
says I do not want this under foi or dp or foi, would that still apply?
Could an applicant be given non personal information confidentially (not
under foi dp or eir) and then be bound by a duty of confidence?
Also, if
they ask for through legal channels (pre discovery), is it still foi/dp or eir.
Or neither? :)
I would go the dp route and keep it as clear as
possible because the situation is already
problematic.

Public authorities
subject to FOI are not legally entitled to answer “neither¯ unless the request
is verbal and not for environmental data – we might do this a lot of the time,
but in principle, even a verbal request for non-environmental information might
engage the FOI duty to provide advice and assistance. So a written request for
information made by a member of the public is either FOI, EIR, or DP. It cannot
be anything else. A verbal request for personal data might dodge Section 7, but
anyone asking this kind of question is probably going to cause pain one way or
the other, so it’s better to go down the right legal track than further
infuriate the already infuriated requester.
So, to give my answer
to Brenda’s question, I agree that DP is the route. You wouldn’t tell anyone
else this information, if recorded.

I think it is neither, or either, but I don;t really
mind.
I think is is Customer

If some asks for
1) The number of times I have
rung your office
2) The number of times your officers have visited
me
Is this DP or FOI ? I think DP because I cannot ask how many times my
neighbour has rung the office or how many times an officer has visited him. If I
had suspicions he was being investigated by one of our depts an answer of none
or 12 would supply me with personal
data.
