Home Office
The complainant requested information relating to the citizenship of the former Prime Minister of Australia. The Home Office refused to confirm or deny whether it held this information and cited the exemption provided by section 40(5) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Home Office cited section 40(5) correctly and so it was not obliged to comply with the complainant’s request.
FOI 40:
Complaint not upheld
Decision notice:
