The complainant submitted a request to Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO, now the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office, FCDO) seeking the retained parts of a particular file, the remainder of which had been transferred to The National Archives. The FCO withheld the requested information on the basis of section 23(1) (security bodies) or, in the alternative, section 24(1) (national security) of FOIA. The Commissioner has concluded that the withheld information is exempt from disclosure on the basis of section 23(1) or section 24(1) of FOIA.
