Ministry of Justice
The complainant requested a copy of a specific prison service order and a copy of an instructor’s manual. The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) provided some information within the scope of the request but refused to provide the remainder, citing sections 21 (information accessible to applicant by other means) and 31(1)(f) (law enforcement – the maintenance and security of good order in prisons) of FOIA. The Commissioner investigated its application of section 31 to the requested manual. The Commissioner’s decision is that the MoJ correctly withheld information relating to the requested manual on the basis of the exemption contained at section 31(1)(f) of FOIA. The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken as a result of this decision.FOI 31: Complaint not upheld
