UK Health Security Agency

The complainant has requested information relating to COVID-19. The UKHSA refused to provide the requested information, citing section 24(1) (national security) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the withheld information engages section 24(1) and the public interest favours maintaining the exemption. The UKHSA breached section 10 (time for compliance with request) in failing to provide its refusal notice within twenty working days of receipt of the request. The Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any steps.

FOI 24: Complaint not upheld FOI 10: Complaint upheld

Decision notice: 168787
