Ministry of Justice

The complainant requested a report relating to unrepresented defendants in Crown Court cases. The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) refused to disclose the report under the exemption provided by section 35(1)(a) (formulation or development of government policy) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that section 35(1)(a) was engaged, but that the public interest did not favour maintaining the exemption. The MoJ is now required to disclose the withheld report.

FOI 35: Complaint upheld

Decision notice: fs50694870
