Civil Aviation Authority

The complainant has requested details of applications made to the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) to fly unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) beyond the visual line of sight. This is what is known as BVLOS applications. The complainant specifically requested the BVLOS applications from January 2019 to the date of their request. The CAA refused to provide the requested information, citing section 44(1)(a) (prohibitions on disclosure) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the CAA has correctly applied section 44(1)(a) and the Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any steps to ensure compliance with the legislation.

FOI 44: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: IC-72926
