Ministry of Defence (Decision Notice) [2010] UKICO FS50267838 (09 September 2010)
Summary: The complainant made a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the -˜Act-™) to the Ministry of Defence (the -˜MOD-™) for information about the aircraft accident which resulted in the death of his grandfather in 1940. The MOD provided a response in which it explained that apart from some basic casualty records and the originals of the aircraft accident card which it provided to the complainant, it did not hold any information in relation to the request in accordance with section 1(1)(a) of the Act. The Commissioner has concluded on the balance of probabilities, that with the exception of the documentation provided to the complainant, the information requested was not held by the authority and therefore it complied with section 1(1)(a) in denying that it held any further information. Information Tribunal appeal number EA/2010/0167 dismissed.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 1 - Complaint Not upheld
