The Criminal Cases Review Commission

The complainant has requested information about the Criminal Cases Review Commission’s (‘the CCRC’) review of its handling of a particular case. The CCRC referred the complainant to its media statements about the review, but it refused to disclose the remaining information it held, citing sections 36 (Prejudice to effective conduct of public affairs), 42 (Legal professional privilege) and 43 (Commercial interests) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the CCRC was entitled to apply sections 36(2)(b)(i), 36(2)(b)(ii) and 36(2)(c) of FOIA to refuse to disclose the remaining information. However, he found breaches of sections 1(1), 10(1) and 17 in its handling of the request. FOI section 1 complaint upheld, FOI section 10 complaint upheld, FOI section 17 complaint upheld, FOI section 36 complaint not upheld

FOI 17: Complaint upheld FOI 10: Complaint upheld FOI 36: Complaint not upheld FOI 1: Complaint upheld

Decision notice: 269703
