National Archives
The complainant has requested information from the National Archives (TNA) contained in record reference numbers J271/136/1 and 2. TNA refused to disclose the requested information, citing the exemptions at sections 24, 31 and 40 of the FOIA as a basis for non-disclosure.The Commissioner’s decision is that TNA has correctly applied the exemptions at sections 24 and 40 to the majority of the requested information. As the information to which section 31 was applied was also covered by section 24, the Commissioner did not investigate TNA’s application of section 31. The Commissioner also considers that some of the information contained within the relevant record can be disclosed as the above exemptions do not apply. The Commissioner requires the public authority to disclose the Items as identified by the Commissioner’s correspondence with TNA of 28 July 2021 which are specified in the Confidential Annex to this Notice.FOI 24: Complaint upheld FOI 40: Complaint partly upheld
