Arts Council England

The complainant has requested Arts Council England (ACE) to disclose the “update on the Arts Council’s preparations for the Spending Review” provided by Richard Russell at ACE’s National Council meeting on 19 June (referred to in item 5 of the minutes). ACE refused to disclosed the requested information citing section 36(2)(b)(ii) and 36(2)(c) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that section 36(2)(b)(ii) is engaged and the public interest in favour of disclosure is outweighed by the public interest in favour of maintaining the exemption. She therefore does not require any further action to be taken.

FOI 36(2)(b)(ii): Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: fs50903551
