Home Office

The complainant requested documents relating to a shooting club. The Home Office refused the request under section 12(2) of the FOIA – as it would take it over the appropriate cost limit to determine if the information is held. The Commissioner’s decision is that section 12(2) of the FOIA was cited correctly and so the Home Office was not required to confirm or deny whether the requested information was held. The Commissioner does not require the Home Office to take any steps. Information Tribunal appeal EA/2021/0094 appeal dismissed.
