The complainant requested information relating to repossession claims begun by a named mortgage company. The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) refused to provide the requested information citing section 32 of the FOIA (court records). The Commissioner’s decision is that the MoJ was entitled to rely on section 32(1)(c)(i) and (ii) to withhold the requested information. She does not require the MoJ to take any steps as a result of this decision.
FOI 32: Not upheld
