Subject: Quick question - PI contained in court documents
Good morning all,
I think I may be having a moment here, but could someone advise as to how personal information (about a requester) is treated in a document created for a court by a local authority in response to a SAR?
I'm aware of the s.32(1) FOIA exemption of course. In previous organisations, I'm aware that court records have been blanket removed with the requester being given any relevant reference numbers and being told to contact the court directly.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Andrew

Essentially no exemption and no equivalent to s32 FOIA.
In practice I would be more pedantic than normal (if possible for me!) about only disclosing the PD and not the documents as such.
Also for mixed data the court proceedings and rights arising from them would of course be relevant circumstances under s7(4).
Finally I suppose in rare cases, though I cannot easily create an example, the legal professional privilege or self-incrimination exemptions might bite.
