Attorney General's Office

The complainant requested information relating to a decision to consent to prosecute. The Attorney General’s Office (AGO) confirmed it held relevant information but refused to disclose it, citing section 42 (legal professional privilege) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the AGO correctly applied section 42(1) of FOIA to the withheld information. The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken as a result of this decision.

FOI 42: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: ic-99498
