Help With Fees statistics
Dear Ministry of Justice,
Do any statistics exist about the provision of Help With Fees? If so please provide what is available, thank you.
Yours faithfully,

Dear Mr Guise
Your request does not fall under the FOIA
It may be helpful if I explain that the FOIA gives individuals and organisations the right of access to all types of recorded information held, at the time the request is received, by public authorities such as the Ministry of Justice (MoJ). Section 84 of the FOIA states that in order for a request for information to be handled as a FOI request, it must be for recorded information.
For example, a FOI request would be for a copy of a policy, rather than an explanation as to why we have that policy in place. On occasion, the MoJ receives requests that do not ask for recorded information, but ask more general questions about, for example, a policy, opinion or a decision

Dear Disclosure Team,
Thank you for your reply. Please confirm I am right in concluding from this response that the MoJ does not record how many and the value of fees are uncharged either by way of exemption or remission. Thank you.
Yours sincerely,
