Summary: In July 2010 the complainant requested information relating to a post which a British Ambassador published on an internet blogging site. The public authority relied on section 27 to refuse the request but by the date of this notice it had failed to make its substantive determination on the public interest test. The Commissioner found substantial procedural breaches and ordered the public authority to issue a refusal notice compliant with section 17(3) or, in the alternative, release the requested information to the complainant.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 10 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 17 - Complaint Upheld
