3 May 2016, Central government
The complainant requested information relating to meetings held with the Governments of Eritrea, Somalia, Ethiopia or Egypt to discuss migration. The Home Office provided some information within the scope of the request but withheld the remainder citing sections 21 (information accessible to applicant by other means), 27(1) (international relations), 36(2)(b)(i) (prejudice to effective conduct of public affairs) and 40(2) (personal information) of the FOIA. The Commissioner has investigated the Home Office’s application of sections 27(1) and 40(2) and has concluded that the Home Office was entitled to apply those exemptions to the requested information. The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken as a result of this decision.
