- Decision(s) FOI 12: Upheld
The complainant requested the number of payments made by the Home Office of more than £25,000 that were not included in the information published by the Home Office about such payments, and the amount of each of those payments. The Home Office refused this request on cost grounds under section 12(1) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Home Office cited section 12(1) incorrectly and it is now required to issue a fresh response to the request.
