The complainant has requested information about data breaches over the previous ten years. The Commissioner's decision is that the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) is entitled to rely on section 12(1), cost of compliance exceeds the appropriate limit, to refuse to comply with the request. The Commissioner is also satisfied that DWP has provided adequate advice and assistance in accordance with its obligations with 16(1). The Commissioner does however find that DWP breached section 17(5) by failing to provide the refusal notice within the statutory timeframe. The Commissioner does not require any steps.
