Attorney General's Office

The complainant has requested information regarding animal right activists. The Attorney General’s Office did not comply with the request, citing section 12(1) (costs exceeding the cost limit) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that although section 12 of the FOIA applies, the Attorney General’s Office should have applied section 12(2) (‘neither confirm nor deny’ on cost grounds) of the FOIA. The Commissioner does not require the Attorney General’s Office to take any steps as a result of this decision.

FOI 12: Complaint not upheld FOI 16: Complaint not upheld
