SOCA needs to be able to protect information provided to it from various sources (both within the UK and abroad). The sensitivities surrounding this information are similar to that concerning information about national security. As a result, SOCA is one of the few organisations completely exempt from FOIA. However in the spirit of the Act, SOCA aims to make non-operational information available on the SOCA website, which will include documents such as the annual report.

If you would like to make suggestions to enhance the information currently available on the SOCA website, please email webmaster@SOCA.x.gsi.gov.uk and your suggestions will be taken into account.
