The complainant requested information about prisoner recalls in relation to Parole Board hearings. The Ministry of Justice (the ‘MOJ’) refused to provide the requested information, citing section 40(2), the exemption for personal information, of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the MOJ was entitled to rely on section 40(2) of FOIA to refuse this request. She does not require the MOJ to take any steps.
