28 September 2015, Central government
The complainant requested information from the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) about the cost of prison food and about the menus typically available to prisoners. To date he has not received a substantive response. The Commissioner’s decision is that MoJ has breached the FOIA in that it failed to provide a response to the request within the statutory timeframe of 20 working days. He requires it to comply with the request or issue a valid refusal notice as set out in section 17 of the FOIA. MoJ must take these steps within 35 calendar days of the date of this decision notice. Failure to comply may result in the Commissioner making written certification of this fact to the High Court pursuant to section 54 of the Act and may be dealt with as a contempt of court.
FOI 10: Not upheld
