Ministry of Justice
The complainant requested information relating to the prosecution of various parties before the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal or the investigation of parties by the Solicitors Regulation Authority. The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) refused to comply with the request on the basis that to do so would exceed the appropriate limit in costs set by section 12(1) of the FOIA (cost of compliance). The Commissioner’s decision is that the MoJ correctly applied section 12(1) and found that there is no breach of section 16(1) of the FOIA (duty to provide advice and assistance). She requires no steps to be taken as a result of this decision.FOI 12: Complaint not upheld FOI 16: Complaint not upheld
