Home Office

The complainant requested information from the Home Office information about Afghan evacuees. The Home Office refused to confirm or deny whether it held information within the scope of the request, citing section 12(2) (cost of compliance exceeds appropriate limit) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Home Office was entitled to apply section 12(2) of FOIA and is satisfied that the Home Office met its obligation under section 16 to offer advice and assistance. He finds that the FCA breached section 10(1) FOIA by failing to respond to the request within the statutory time for compliance. The Commissioner does not require the Home Office to take any steps.

FOI 10: Complaint upheld FOI 16: Complaint upheld FOI 12: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 153052
