Ministry of Justice
15 December 2016, Central government
The complainant requested information relating to cases discontinued at trial. The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) confirmed it held information within the scope of the request but refused to provide it citing sections 32 (court records) and 40(2) (personal information) of the FOIA. The Commissioner investigated the MoJ’s application of section 32(1)(c)(ii) and concluded that the MoJ was entitled to rely on this exemption to withhold the information. She requires no steps to be taken.
FOI 32: Not upheld
