The Requester points, as a general reference, to a previous, similar request, dealt with by the Office of the Information Commissioner in Gavin Sheridan and the IDA which concerned the release of lease details from the IDA which was deemed to be in the public interest to release, as referred to in the OIC's annual report: "I take the view that public bodies should be open as to with whom they do business and to whom state monies are paid, and to show that they are ready to be held accountable, if necessary, for those arrangements. My Office ultimately found that the public interest warranted the release of the names at issue". The Requester feels that this is a relevant reference point for his Request
