Cabinet Office
The complainant has requested the agenda and minutes of a meeting which he believes took place after 14 May 2009 regarding the Iraq Inquiry. This meeting is referred to in other information that the Cabinet Office has disclosed under FOIA. The Cabinet Office initially confirmed holding this information but said it needed further time to consider the balance of public interest in relation to section 36 (prejudice to the effective conduct of public affairs). It subsequently corrected what it considered to be an erroneous position and argued that it did not hold information within the scope of the request. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Cabinet Office does not hold any information within the scope of the request but that it contravened the requirements of section 10(1) of the Act by failing to provide a response within 20 working days of the date of the request. No steps are required.
FOI 10:
Complaint upheld
FOI 1:
Complaint not upheld
