The complainant requested information relating to a named individual who was part of an aircrew that deserted from the German air force and flew to an RAF base in May 1943. The Home Office stated that it did not hold any information falling within the scope of this request. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Home Office stated correctly and in accordance with section 1(1)(a) of the FOIA that it did not hold the requested information and so he does not require it to take any steps.
