Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency

The complainant has requested information about the circumstances in which a driving licence can be issued to a person without a permanent residential address. The above public authority disclosed the majority of the requested information, but withheld a small section, relying on section 31 of FOIA in order to do so. The Commissioner’s decision is that the public authority has correctly applied section 31 of FOIA and that the balance of the public interest favours maintaining the exemption. The Commissioner does not require further steps to be taken.

FOI 31: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 207649
