EA/2024/0029/GDPR - [2025] UKFTT 01143 (GRC)

The strike-out application

The reasons given for the strike-out application at paragraphs 35-38 of the Response dated 13 January 2025 are as follows:

An order to progress the Respondent’s investigation is no longer available to the Applicant as the Respondent provided a substantive outcome on 7 January 2025.

The Respondent has taken steps to comply with the procedural requirements set out in section 166(1) and there is no basis for an order under section 166(2).

The remedies sought by the Applicant are not ones which the Tribunal can grant in an application under section 166 of the DPA 2018.

An order for compliance under section 167 of the DPA 2018 should be made through the civil courts not this Tribunal.
