Home Office (Decision Notice) [2011] UKICO FS50315870 (08 February 2011)
Summary: The complainant requested information from the Home Office in relation to the early stages of the process by which cases reported to the police are investigated. The Home Office provided the complainant with links to information in the public domain. The complainant was dissatisfied with the way in which the Home Office handled her request for information. The Commissioner has investigated and found that the exemption provided by section 21 (information accessible by other means) is engaged. Although the Commissioner identified a series of procedural shortcomings on the part of the public authority, he requires no steps to be taken.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 16 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 17 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 21 - Complaint Not upheld
