- Decision(s) FOI 10: Upheld
The complainant requested information relating to matters he had raised that he understood were being investigated by the Home Office. The Home Office had failed to respond to the request at the date of this notice. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Home Office failed to respond to the request within the statutory timeframe and has therefore breached section 10 of the FOIA. The Commissioner requires the Home Office to take the following step to ensure compliance with the legislation: issue a substantive response, under the FOIA, to the request.
