We have it also and I'm going to speak to the company and explain the following points
- Limited company information isn't personal data and doesn't fall under DPA.
- I can treat it as FOI if they wish but they may want to consider if this is the appropriate way forward as the information will effectively be placed in the public domain, subject to exemptions.
- If the personal data is about someone other than the applicant, in this case it is the company, there is an exemption if disclosure would breach any of the Data Protection Principles.
- I cant treat the request for Directors details as SARs because its from a 3rd party who hasn't shown they are acting on behalf of the subject
Regards

Hi Jane,
Yes, that's the one. It's been passed to me from the FOI team. I'm wondering if the Company should be treated as FOI, but the Directors individually as Separate SARS - just a thought ?
Thanks

Subject: [data-protection] Limited Companies
Limitied Companies do not come under the DP Act. If one requests copies of any data/files we hold about the Limited Company or any of its Directors, is that FOI ?
