Ministry of Defence (Decision Notice) [2012] UKICO FS50405530 (26 March 2012)
Summary: The complainant requested information about the review of the system for awarding military medals, which is being conducted by the Ministry of Defence (the MoD). The MoD provided some information and exempted some under section 35(1)(a), 35(1)(b), 36(2)(a)(i), 37(1)(a) and 40(2). The Commissioner-™s decision is that the MoD exceeded the permitted 20 day period for issuing a refusal notice but that the complainant was not entitled to the withheld information because it was exempt and, where relevant, the public interest favours maintaining the exemption.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 22 - Complaint Not upheld, FOI 35 - Complaint Not upheld, FOI 36 - Complaint Not upheld, FOI 37 - Complaint Not upheld
