Ministry of Defence
19 October 2017, Central government
The complainant has requested information relating to the service record of a named person and whether they were still alive in 1948. The Ministry of Defence (MoD) confirmed they held the service record of the named person but stated that they were unable to disclose the requested information, citing the exemption under section 40(2) of the FOIA (third party personal data) as its basis for doing so. The Commissioner’s decision is that the MoD has correctly applied the exemption. The Commissioner does not require any steps to be taken as a result of this decision notice.
FOI 40: Not upheld
