The complainant requested information relating to Home Office vehicles. The Home Office disclosed some of the requested information, but withheld the remainder and cited the exemption provided by section 31(1)(a) (prejudice to the prevention or detection of crime) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Home Office cited section 31(1)(a) correctly, so it was not obliged to disclose the withheld information.
FOI 31: Not upheld
