Home Office
The complainant requested information relating to the partnership between the Home Office and St. Mungo’s, including email communications between named staff from St Mungo's and the Home Office. The Home Office provided some information within the scope of the request but refused to provide the remainder, citing section 31(1)(e) (law enforcement) of the FOIA. The Commissioner investigated its application of section 31(1)(e) to the information requested at parts (2) and (3) of the request. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Home Office applied the exemption provided by section 31(1)(e) incorrectly. The Commissioner requires the Home Office to take the following step to ensure compliance with the legislation: disclose the withheld information in scope of parts (2) and (3) of the request for information, a copy of which was provided to the Commissioner during the course of her investigation, (with appropriate redactions for personal data).
