National Archives
The complainant has requested access to two closed files relating to a historic murder. The National Archives (‘TNA’) withheld the information citing section 38(1)(a) (health and safety) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the exemption is engaged and that the public interest lies in maintaining the exemption. Therefore TNA is entitled to rely upon section 38(1)(a) as a basis for refusing to disclose the requested information. The Commissioner requires TNA to take no further steps.FOI 38: Complaint not upheld
