- Decision(s) FOI 31: Not upheld
The complainant requested templates of letters used to inform applicants whether their immigration application has been successful. The Home Office refused to disclose these templates and cited the exemption provided by section 31(1)(e) (prejudice to the operation of the immigration controls) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Home Office cited this exemption correctly and so it was not obliged to disclose this information.
