Cabinet Office
3 March 2015, Central government
The complainant has requested records of exchanges between Tony Blair and George W Bush that took place in the run up to the invasion of Iraq in March 2003. The Cabinet Office cited provisions of section 27 (International relations exemption) as its basis for refusing to provide this information. It upheld this position following internal review. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Cabinet Office is entitled to rely on section 27(1)(a) and section 27(1)(c) as its basis for refusing to provide the requested information. No steps are required.
FOI 27: Not upheld
