Ministry of Justice

The complainant requested information from the Judicial Conduct Investigation Office (JCIO) relating to complaints of judicial misconduct. The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) responded, refusing to disclose the requested information and citing the exemptions at sections 44(1)(a) (prohibitions on disclosure) and 40(2) (personal information) of the FOIA. The Commissioner investigated the MoJ’s application of section 44(1)(a). The Commissioner’s decision is that the MoJ was entitled to find that the information was exempt from disclosure under section 44(1)(a) of the FOIA by virtue of section 139 of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005 (CRA).The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken as a result of this decision.
