- Decision(s) FOI 31: Not upheld
The complainant has requested from House of Commons (“HOC") information on all web sites accessed from the parliamentary network. HoC relied on Section 31 (law enforcement) and Section 24 (national security) to withhold requested information. The Commissioner’s decision is that HoC correctly relied on section 31 to withhold requested information that it held or otherwise did not hold some of the requested information. The Commissioner requires the public authority to take no steps to ensure compliance with the legislation.
