Home Office
2 November 2017, Central government
The complainant has requested information about imaging scanners. The Home Office provided some information and withheld the rest under sections 31(1)(a) (prevention or detection of crime), (b)(apprehension or prosecution of offenders), (e) (the operation of immigration controls) and 21 (information accessible by other means) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Home Office has applied section 31(1)(a)(b) and (e) of FOIA appropriately. However, the Commissioner considers that the Home Office has breached sections 10 (time for compliance) and 17 (refusal of a request) of FOIA. The Commissioner does not require the Home Office to take any further steps as a result of this decision.
FOI 31: Not upheld FOI 17: Upheld FOI 10: Upheld
