Ministry of Justice

The complainant requested information relating to how complaints are logged/recorded. The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) refused to deal with the request on the basis that it did not constitute a valid request for recorded information. The Commissioner’s decision is that the request was valid under section 8 of FOIA. Consequently the Commissioner finds that the MoJ has failed to comply with section 1(1) and section 10(1) of FOIA in failing to issue a substantive response. The Commissioner requires the MoJ to take the following step to ensure compliance with the legislation: issue a response to the complainant in accordance with FOIA.

FOI 10: Complaint upheld FOI 1: Complaint upheld FOI 8: Complaint upheld
