National Savings and Investments
1 March 2017, Central government
The complainant requested information relating to dormant National Savings and Investment (NS&I) products. NS&I refused the request under section 44(1)(a) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the Act), as it considered that disclosure of the information was barred by other statutory instruments. The Commissioner’s decision is that NS&I is entitled to refuse the request under section 44(1)(a) of the Act. However, NS&I did breach section 17(1) of the Act as it did not provide a refusal of the complainant’s request within the statutory timeframe. No steps are required.
FOI 17: Upheld FOI 44: Not upheld
