Home Office

The complainant requested a copy of a file that is listed as being closed to public inspection. The Home Office refused to provide it, citing sections 24(1) (national security), 31(1)(a)(b) (law enforcement), 37(1)(a) (communications with the Sovereign), 38(1)(b) (health & safety) and 40(2) (personal information) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Home Office correctly applied sections 31 and 37 to withhold all the requested information. The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken as a result of this decision.
