Foreign and Commonwealth Office
The complainant submitted a request to the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) for copies of diplomatic telegrams and briefings sent by the FCO in Moscow regarding the football World Cup held in Russia in 2018. The FCO disclosed some information but sought to withhold further information on the basis of section 27(1)(a) (international relations) of FOIA. The Commissioner is satisfied that the withheld information is exempt from disclosure on the basis of this exemption and that in all the circumstances of the case the public interest favours withholding the information.
FOI 27:
Complaint not upheld
