The complainant has requested information from Avon Fire and Rescue Service relating to three companies. The fire service refused to supply requested in formation, initially in reliance of the exemptions provided by sections 24(1) (national security) and 38 (health and safety) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the fire service is entitled to rely on section 24(1) of the FOIA as the basis for withholding the information sought by the complainant. No steps are required.
