Maritime and Coastguard Agency

The complainant has requested spreadsheets tracking responses to distress calls in the English Channel. The above public authority provided copies of the spreadsheets with certain data fields redacted. It relied on sections 31 (law enforcement) and 27 (international relations) to withhold the remaining data fields. The Commissioner’s decision is that the public authority has correctly relied on section 31 of FOIA to withhold the remaining information and that the balance of the public interest favours maintaining the exemption. The Commissioner does not require further steps. Keywords: migrant boats
