Ministry of Justice
4 September 2014, Central government
The complainant requested information relating to court proceedings involving himself. The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) confirmed it held some of the requested information but stated that the information was exempt from disclosure by virtue of sections 40(1) and (2) (personal information) and 32 (court records) of FOIA. The Commissioner has considered the MoJ’s application of those exemptions. His decision is that the MoJ correctly applied section 40(1) (personal information of the applicant) to the withheld information. He is also satisfied that, on the balance of probabilities, the MoJ does not hold some of the requested information. He requires no steps to be taken as a result of this decision notice. Information Tribunal appeal EA/2014/0243 dismissed.
FOI 32: Not upheld FOI 40: Not upheld
