Department for Work and Pensions v Information Commissioner

Department for Work and Pensions v Information Commissioner was a 2013 first-tier tribunal case in the United Kingdom. It concerned a dispute over whether companies that had participated in government 'workfare' schemes should be released under the Freedom of Information Act following a request by a man called Frank Zola. The tribunal ruled that the names of participant companies should be released.[1]

The DWP appealed to the Upper Tribunal but on 15 July 2014 this was dismissed.[2]
