Home Office (Decision Notice) [2013] UKICO FS50470164 (08 April 2013)
Summary: The complainant requested a copy of legal advice provided to ACPO and held by the Home Office about the legality of offering speed awareness courses. The Home Office refused to disclose this information under the exemption provided by section 42(1) (legal professional privilege) of the FOIA. The Commissioner-™s decision is that the Home Office cited this exemption correctly and so it is not required to disclose this information. This decision notice is currently under appeal to the Information Tribunal.
