Ministry of Justice
The complainant requested information relating to penalty charges associated with a specified toll bridge. During the course of the Commissioner’s investigation, the Ministry of Justice (the ‘MOJ’) said that it had responded to the request as ‘business as usual’ rather than under FOIA. Ultimately, it provided more details to the complainant during the investigation, although he remained dissatisfied with some of the information provided. The Commissioner cannot consider the accuracy of the information supplied, but has investigated the FOIA aspects, namely whether the request under consideration was valid for the purposes of section 8 (request for information) and whether the MOJ has provided the information it holds in accordance with section 1 of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the request was valid for the purposes of section 8 of FOIA. She also finds, on the balance of probabilities, that the MOJ has provided the information it holds in relation to this request. The Commissioner does not requires the MOJ to take any steps to ensure compliance with the legislation.
