The Commissioner requires MoJ to disclose to the complainant the information identified at paragraph 81 of this decision notice. The MoJ must take these steps within 35 calendar days of the date of this decision notice. Failure to comply may result in the Commissioner making written certification of this fact to the High Court pursuant to section 54 of the Act and may be dealt with as a contempt of court.
