Secretary of State for the Home Department (Home Office)

The complainant has requested information about whether an organisation is proscribed, from the Home Office. The Home Office would neither confirm nor deny (“NCND”) holding any information, citing sections 23(5) (Information supplied by, or relating to, bodies dealing with security matters), 24(2) (National security) and 27(4) (International relations) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Home Office was not entitled to NDNC holding any information. The Commissioner requires the Home Office to issue a fresh response confirming whether or not any information is held. If it is held, this should either be disclosed or the Home Office should issue a refusal notice in compliance with section 17 of FOIA.
