While I cannot comment on the specific case mentioned by the Deputy, I can confirm that there is no provision in the legislation on Freedom of Information fees for a refund of the appeal fee charged by the Information Commissioner in circumstances where the commissioner has completed a review in accordance with section 34 of the Act and has established that the record requested does not exist.
