Parole Board
11 May 2015, Police and criminal justice
The complainant requested information from the Parole Board relating to its decision to release a named individual from prison. The Parole Board confirmed it held some relevant information but refused to disclose it citing section 44 (prohibition on disclosure) and 40(2) (personal information) of FOIA. During the course of the Commissioner’s investigation it additionally cited section 32 (court records). The Commissioner has investigated the Parole Board’s application of section 44. His decision is that it was entitled to apply section 44(1)(a) to the withheld information. He requires no steps to be taken as a result of this decision notice.
FOI 44: Not upheld
