Home Office
16 March 2017, Central government
The complainant has requested information relating to five men arrested in the Winchelsea beach area, on suspicion of entering the UK illegally. The Home Office failed to respond to this request for information and the Commissioner’s decision is that in doing so the Home Office breached sections 1(1) and 10(1) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA). The Commissioner requires the Home Office to issue a response to the request under the FOIA by either complying with section 1(1) or issuing a valid refusal notice.
