Ministry of Justice (Decision Notice) [2011] UKICO FS50354194 (16 June 2011)
Summary: The complainant asked for information about whether a high profile individual had committed offences or breached the terms of his licence since being released from prison. The Ministry of Justice refused to confirm or deny whether it held information falling within the scope of the request, citing the exemptions in sections 31(3) and 40(5). The Commissioner accepted that the information was exempt under section 40(5) but found that there had been procedural breaches in the issuing of the refusal notice.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 17 - Complaint Not upheld, FOI 40 - Complaint Not upheld
