FOI 440 Internal Review 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Dear L. Lluva, 
 
I am writing further to our letter of 24 May 2010 regarding the Internal Review of our response 
to FOI 440 and to advise you that we have now completed the internal review process.  
  
Please note that in addition to having located, printed, indexed and collated the information 
we hold relevant to your request we have now reviewed the information held, that is, minutes, 
papers and summary reports relating to the Olympic Delivery Committee (ODC) meetings 
which were produced in 2008. In reviewing this information we have considered whether any 
of the information is exempt from disclosure, including applying the public interest test and 
consulting third parties in instances where commercially sensitive information is included in 
the material, often provided under confidentiality clauses. 
 
We have now completed this exercise and have included with this letter the final documents 
making up the information held in relation to your request.   
 
We have provided below a table listing the following information: 
 
Information held and provided: 
 
A list of documents provided, including date of meeting, document reference number and 
description, the nature of any information that has been redacted from each document and 
the exemption which applies to these redactions. Further information regarding the application 
of exemptions is provided subsequent to the tables.

Application of Exemptions 
 
Under Section 2 of the Freedom of Information Act, the duty of a public authority to give 
access to information does not apply in respect of information which is exempt under the Act, 
applying the public interest balance, where necessary, to the application of the exemption. 
 
You will note that we have applied the following exemptions to the information requested: 
 
Section 40 
Section 40 of the Act exempts personal data about a third party from disclosure if the 
disclosure would: 
 
•  breach any of the Data Protection Principles under the Data Protection Act; or 
•  cause (or would be likely to cause) substantial distress to the individual concerned. 
 
The First Data Principle requires that disclosure of personal data under the Freedom of 
Information Act must be fair. We consider the names of staff below the level of Director and 
those of third parties to be exempt from disclosure on the basis that: 
 
•  the information is personal data; 
•  disclosure of the information would be unfair to the person concerned and therefore in 
breach of the Data Protection Principles. 
 
We therefore consider that this constitutes personal data exempt from disclosure under the 
Freedom of Information Act. We have therefore redacted from the documents the names of 
staff below the level of Director or equivalent and those of any third parties. 
  
Please accept our apologies for the delays experienced in completing this exercise. 
  
Yours sincerely, 
 
Public Liaison Unit 
London Development Agency
