Attorney General's Office
The complainant requested information relating to an allegation of contempt of court. The Attorney General’s Office (AGO) confirmed it held relevant information, but refused to provide it, citing section 42 (legal professional privilege) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the AGO was entitled to rely on the exemption at section 42(1) of the FOIA to withhold the information. She requires no steps to be taken as a result of this decision.
FOI 42:
Complaint not upheld
