The complainant has requested information regarding the salary and job role of Cressida Dick. The Foreign and Commonwealth Office (“FCO”) refused to provide this citing section 23 (security bodies) as its basis for doing so. It upheld this at internal review. The Commissioner’s decision is that the FCO is entitled to rely on section 23(1) as its basis for withholding the requested information. No steps are required.
