Cabinet Office

The complainant requested the identities of members of an accreditation committee. The Cabinet Office initially withheld all of the information but later disclosed most of it. It relied on section 40(2) to withhold the remaining information. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Cabinet Office failed to issue its refusal notice within 20 working days and therefore breached section 17(1) of the FOIA. The Commissioner has also made some comments on the Cabinet Office’s engagement with her office under “Other Matters.” The Commissioner does not require further steps.

FOI 17: Complaint upheld

Decision notice: fs50886126
