Summary: The complainant has requested a copy of the risk register for the Universal Credit scheme. The Department for Work and Pensions (-DWP-) refused to provide the requested information and cited exemptions at section 36 (prejudice to the effective conduct of public affairs) as its basis for doing so. It upheld this position after an internal review. The Commissioner-s decision is that the DWP is entitled to rely on the exemptions it has cited and is not obliged to disclose the requested information under the FOIA. No steps are required.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 36 - Complaint Not upheld
