Food Standards Agency

The complainant has requested information about animal welfare incidents in slaughterhouses. The Food Standards Agency (FSA) provided some information but relied on exemptions under section 31 (law enforcement), and on section 38 (health and safety) of FOIA to withhold the remaining information. FSA subsequently also applied additional exemptions under section 31, and on section 43 (commercial interests) to the withheld information. The Commissioner’s decision is that FSA is entitled to withhold the specific information the complainant has requested under section 31(1) of FOIA. It’s not necessary for FSA to take any corrective steps.

FOI 31: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 248488
