- Decision(s) FOI 14: Not upheld
The complainant submitted a request to the Ministry of Defence (MOD) for information related to his medical treatment by the RAF in the 1990s. The MOD considered the request to be vexatious and therefore refused to answer it on the basis of section 14(1) of FOIA. The Commissioner has concluded that the MOD is entitled to rely on section 14(1). Information Tribunal appeal EA/2015/0004 allowed in part.
