Ministry of Justice
14 July 2016, Central government
The complainant requested the names of individuals appointed by the Secretary of State to each Independent Monitoring Board for each prison and Young Offenders Institution. The Ministry of Justice (the ‘MOJ’) refused to provide the requested information, citing section 40(2), the exemption for personal information, of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the MOJ has correctly relied on section 40(2) in relation to this request. He does not require the MOJ to take any steps.
FOI 40: Not upheld
