Department for Transport

The complainant requested information about the Lockerbie bombing. Department for Transport (DfT) withheld the information under sections 23, 24, 27, 31, 38 and 40 of FOIA. These exemptions concern information supplied by or relating to bodies dealing with security matters, national security, international relations, law enforcement, health and safety and personal data respectively. The Commissioner’s decision is that DfT is entitled to withhold the requested information under section 24(1) of FOIA and the public interest favours non-disclosure. It is not necessary for DfT to take any corrective steps.

FOI 24: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 214984
