The complainant has requested information from the Ministry of Justice (MoJ), relating to the use of Bromine or other drugs given to children whilst in a detention centre during 1960 to 1980. The MoJ relied on section 12(2) of FOIA (cost of compliance) to refuse the request. The Commissioner's decision is that: The MoJ was entitled to rely on section 12(2) of FOIA to refuse the request. The MoJ complied with its section 16 obligation to offer advice and assistance. The MoJ breached section 10(1) by failing to respond to the request within 20 working days. The Commissioner does not require further steps to be taken.
