Home Office
The complainant requested information about CCTV cameras in operation at specified Immigration Removal Centres. The Home Office refused to provide the requested information citing section 31(1)(f) of FOIA (the exemption for the maintenance and security and good order in prisons or in other institutions where persons are lawfully detained). The Commissioner’s decision is that the Home Office was entitled to rely on section 31(1)(f) and that the balance of the public interest favours maintaining this exemption. No steps are required as a result of this notice.FOI 31: Complaint not upheld
