3. See the response to Q2.

4. Lincolnshire County Council are unable to provide this information without compromising data protection.

This personal information is exempt from disclosure under section 40(2) which, by virtue of section 40(3)(a)(i), allows a public authority to withhold information from a response to a request under the Freedom of Information Act when the information requested is personal data relating to someone other than the requestor, and its disclosure would contravene one of the Data Protection principles. We consider that none of the individuals referred to in this information would anticipate or expect such details to be disclosed into the public domain. Therefore, we consider that such a disclosure would be unfair and in breach of the first Data Protection principle which states that “Personal data shall be processed fairly and lawfully …” It is for this reason that it is being withheld you in reliance on section 40(2) of the Freedom of Information Act.
