I'm looking for the information from government of Jersey.

Questionnaire

Response 

It is considered that providing this information may cause a security risk and therefore it has been refused under Article 42 (a) (Law Enforcement) of the Freedom of Information (Jersey) Law 2011.  

Article applied 

Article 42 - Law enforcement 

Information is qualified exempt information if its disclosure would, or would be likely to, prejudice – 

(a)     the prevention, detection or investigation of crime, whether in Jersey or elsewhere;

(b)     the apprehension or prosecution of offenders, whether in respect of offences committed in Jersey or elsewhere;

(c)     the administration of justice, whether in Jersey or elsewhere;

(d)     the assessment or collection of a tax or duty or of an imposition of a similar nature;

(e)     the operation of immigration controls, whether in Jersey or elsewhere;

(f)      the maintenance of security and good order in prisons or in other institutions where persons are lawfully detained;

(g)     the proper supervision or regulation of financial services; or

(h)     the exercise, by the Jersey Financial Services Commission, of any function imposed on it by any enactment. 

Public Interest Test 

It is recognised that there is a public interest in providing information in a transparent manner, however this public interest is not considered to outweigh the interests of the government in preventing cyber-crime or maintaining the integrity of its law enforcement assets. It is considered that release of this information may increase risks, particularly in view of major cyber-attacks that have occurred in other jurisdictions in recent years.
