The complainant requested information about the application of an amnesty dated April 2008 under the terms of which the Ministry of Justice (MOJ) did not seek repayments of certain monies previously paid on account to qualifying providers of legal aid services. The Commissioner’s decision is that MOJ does not hold any recorded information beyond that provided to the complainant and so had complied with section 1(1) FOIA. The Commissioner does not require MOJ to take any steps to ensure compliance with the legislation.
FOI 1: Not upheld
