HM Revenue and Customs
19 December 2007, Central government
The complainant requested details of items seized by HMRC at Bristol airport, Avonmouth and Portbury docks for the financial years 2004/05 and 2005/06. HMRC refused to disclose this information because it considered it to be exempt from disclosure on the basis of section 31(1)(a) (prevention or detection of crime). Having reviewed the withheld information the Commissioner has decided that HMRC appropriately relied upon section 31 when refusing the information.
FOI 31: Not upheld
