Cabinet Office (Decision Notice) [2011] UKICO FS50295029 (23 February 2011)
Summary: The complainant requested all records held by the Cabinet Office in connection with the negotiations of a Prisoner Transfer Agreement with Libya. The Cabinet Office refused to provide the information it held relying variously on the exemptions contained at sections 21, 27(1)(a), 27(1)(c), 27(2), 28(1), 35(1)(a), 40(2) and 41(1) of the Act. The Commissioner has concluded that the majority of these exemptions have been correctly relied upon. However, he has also concluded that a small number of documents should be disclosed either because the relevant exemptions are not engaged or if the exemptions are engaged then the public interest favours disclosure of the information.
