The complainant has requested two risk assessment documents from the Home Office. The Home Office refused to provide them citing the exemptions at sections 31(1)(a) and (b) (Law enforcement), 23 (Information supplied by, or relating to, bodies dealing with security matters), 24 (National security) and 40 (Personal information) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that section 31(1) is engaged and the public interest favours maintaining the exemption. No steps are required.
