Home Office

The complainant submitted a request to the Home Office for information relating to the painting over of murals at Manston Detention Centre and Kent Intake Unit. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Home Office was entitled to rely on section 12(1) of FOIA to refuse the request, and that it complied with its obligations under section 16(1). However, in failing to respond to the request and issue a refusal notice within the statutory timescale, the Commissioner has determined that the Home Office breached sections 10(1) and 17(5) of FOIA. The Commissioner does not require further steps as a result of this decision notice.

FOI 12(1): Complaint not upheld FOI 16(1): Complaint not upheld FOI 10(1): Complaint upheld FOI 17(5): Complaint upheld

Decision notice: 266369
