Outcome
Retiree's own pension commutation calculations, restoration dates and arrears records fully disclosable.
Ratio decidendi
A retiree's own commutation calculation, the date of restoration, DCRG worksheet, leave encashment and arrears records are fully disclosable to him under RTI. §8(1)(j) cannot be invoked against the data subject himself. Departmental delay attracts §20 liability.
