Foreign and Commonwealth Office
21 October 2014, Central government
The complainant has requested correspondence between Tony Blair and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (“FCO”) relating to the Arabian Peninsula and Iraq. The FCO refused to provide this citing section 27 (International Relations); section 38 (Health and Safety); and section 40 (Personal Information). It upheld this at internal review. The Commissioner’s decision is that the FCO is entitled to rely on section 27, section 38 and section 40 as its basis for withholding the requested information. No steps are required.
