You asked

In this TechCrunch article it states that TfL were investigating complaints about Hailo's minimum fare. "Asked about TfL investigating complaints about the price hike she described it as being engaged in a “conversation” with the local authority cab licensing body" Can I widen the search please to all emails from June 2013 - December 2013 between TfLTPH department & Hailo that references the minimum fare?

Our Ref:         FOI-1329-1920

Thank you for your request received on 2 August 2019 asking for correspondence between Helen Chapman and Hailo from 2013.

Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act and our information access policy. I can confirm we do hold the information you require.

Please find the requested correspondence attached.

In accordance with our obligations under Data Protection legislation some information has been withheld from the attached correspondence, as required by section 40(2) of the FOI Act. This is because disclosure of this personal data would be a breach of the legislation, specifically the first principle of Article 5 of the General Data Protection Regulation which requires all processing of personal data to be fair and lawful. It would not be fair to disclose this personal information when the individuals have no expectation it would be disclosed and TfL has not satisfied one of the conditions which would make the processing ‘fair’.

This exemption to the right of access to information is an absolute exemption and not subject to an assessment of whether the public interest favours use of the exemption.

If this is not the information you are looking for, or if you are unable to access it for some reason, please feel free to contact me.

Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.

Yours sincerely
