17 February 2016, Central government
The complainant submitted a request to the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) for information about the late Sir Peter Hayman. The FCO disclosed some information to the complainant but withheld the remainder on the basis of sections 23(1) (security bodies), 40(2) (personal data) and 41 (information provided in confidence) of FOIA. The Commissioner has concluded that the withheld information is exempt from disclosure under sections 23(1) and 40(2) of FOIA. He has also concluded that the FCO breached section 17(1) of FOIA by failing to provide the complainant with a refusal notice which cited these exemptions within 20 working days of his request.
FOI 17: Upheld FOI 23: Not upheld FOI 40: Not upheld
