Q2 – 28.
After careful consideration I am able to confirm that the information you have requested in questions 2 - 28 is exempt by virtue of Section 40 (2) of the act (as amended by Schedule 19 of the Data Protection Act 2018).
The information you have requested may directly or indirectly identify an individual and is therefore the personal data of a third party (as defined by the GDPR (a4.1) and the Data Protection Act 2018 (s3.2)). In addition this data relates to ethnicity and sexual orientation which is special category data and afforded extra protection under the UK GDPR. Releasing this personal data would be likely to contravene the first data protection principle (as defined by the GDPR (a5) and the Data Protection Act 2018 (s35)). This is an absolute exemption therefore neither the public interest test nor evidence of harm in disclosure needs to be outlined.
