The complainant has requested TNA to disclose file HO 144/21191, which concerns police protection to members of the Royal Family, Cabinet members and others. TNA refused to disclose the information citing section 31(1)(a) to (c) and 40(2) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that TNA is entitled to refuse to disclose the withheld information in accordance with section 31(1)(a) to (c) of FOIA. As the withheld information in its entirety is exempt under section 31(1)(a) to (c) there was no requirement for the Commissioner to consider section 40(2). No further action is required.
FOI 31(1)(a): Complaint not upheld FOI 31(1)(c): Complaint not upheld FOI 31(1)(b): Complaint not upheld
