Ministry of Defence
The complainant submitted a request to the Ministry of Defence (MOD) seeking information about whether the Aldermaston Women’s Peace Camp was included on any watchlist or database of domestic extremism and what the criteria were for inclusion on such a list. The MOD refused to confirm or deny whether it held any information falling within the scope of the request on the basis of sections 23(5) (security bodies), 24(2) (national security) and 31(3) law enforcement. The Commissioner’s decision is that the MOD is entitled to refuse to comply with the request on the basis of section 23(5) of FOIA.FOI 23: Complaint not upheld
