Home Office

The complainant requested a copy of a specified Windrush report which was ultimately withheld by the Home Office on the basis of section 36 of FOIA (effective conduct of public affairs). The Commissioner’s decision is that the Home Office was entitled to rely on subsections 36(2)(b)(i) and (ii) and 36(2)(c) in refusing to provide the requested report, and that in all the circumstances of the case the public interest favours maintaining these exemptions. No steps are required as a result of this notice.

FOI 36: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 199628
