The complainant requested training course information for judges from the Judicial College, which is part of the Ministry of Justice (the ‘MOJ’). Once it had been established that the request was being made under the FOIA, the MOJ stated that the requested information was not held for the purposes of FOIA under the provisions of section 3(2)(a). The Commissioner’s decision is that the requested information is not held by the MOJ for the purposes of FOIA by virtue of section 3(2)(a). He requires no steps to be taken. Information Tribunal appeal EA/2014/0290 struck out.
FOI 3: Not upheld
