Home Office (Decision Notice) [2012] UKICO FS50457923 (12 December 2012)
Summary: The complainant requested details of communications between the Home Office and the Policy Exchange think tank. The Home Office withheld some information within the scope of the request citing section 36(2)(b)(i) and (ii) (prejudice to effective conduct of public affairs). The Commissioner-™s decision is that the exemption is engaged and that the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in favour of disclosing the information. He is also satisfied that the Home Office complied with section 1(1) in relation to the request. He requires no steps to be taken.
