Companies wholly owned by councils are subject to FOI via Section 6 of the Act

https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/200...

I see the company claims to have sought advice from the ICO on if it is subject to FOI, you could make a request to the ICO for a copy of the advice.

The company website says:

"Today Ipswich Buses remains wholly owned by Ipswich Borough Council"

https://www.ipswichbuses.co.uk/help-cont...

The company's latest accounts say it is wholly owned by the council

https://find-and-update.company-informat...

and there are no more recent changes to that.

The company could be asked to reconsider its position, and if that isn't successful the matter could be referred to the Information Commissioner.
