Summary: The complainant requested information concerning security at court premises. The public authority refused the request, citing the exemption provided by section 31(1)(a) (prejudice to the prevention or detection of crime). Following the complaint to the Commissioner, the public authority also cited sections 31(1)(c) (prejudice to the administration of justice) and 38(1)(b) (endangerment to safety). The Commissioner finds that none of these exemptions are engaged and the public authority is required to disclose the information requested. He also finds that the public authority failed to comply with procedural requirements of the Act through its handling of the request.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 10 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 17 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 31 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 38 - Complaint Upheld
