21 November 2017, Central government
The complainant has requested information relating to a public consultation: ‘Reporting and Acting on Child Abuse and Neglect’. The Home Office withheld the requested information, citing section 35(1)(a) (the formulation or development of government policy) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Home Office has applied section 35(1)(a) of FOIA appropriately. However, she considers that the Home Office has breached sections 10(1) (time for compliance) and 17 (refusal of a request) of FOIA. The Commissioner does not require the Home Office to take any steps as a result of this decision notice.
FOI 35: Not upheld FOI 17: Upheld FOI 10: Upheld
