18 April 2016, Central government
The complainant has requested information relating to whistleblowing reports received by the Serious Fraud Office through its confidential service ‘SFO Confidential’ since its launch in November 2011. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Serious Fraud office has applied section 31(1)(a) (prevention or detection of crime) of the FOIA appropriately. However, the Commissioner considers that the SFO has breached section 10(3) (time taken to consider the public interest) and section 17(1) (refusal of a request). The Commissioner does not require the Serious Fraud Office to take any further steps as a result of this decision.
FOI 10: Upheld FOI 31: Not upheld
