- Decision(s) FOI 10(1): Upheld, FOI 22: Not upheld
The complainant has requested information from the Home Office in relation to letters being sent to individuals who are being relocated to Rwanda. The Home Office has cited section 22 of FOIA – information intended for future publication. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Home Office has correctly engaged section 22 of FOIA and that the balance of the public interest favours maintaining the exemption. However, as the Home Office failed to provide a response to the request within 20 working days, it has breached section 10(1) of FOIA. The Commissioner does not require the Home Office to take any steps as a result of this Decision Notice.
