Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy
The complainant has requested the responses to a consultation on the Pubs Code and Pub Codes Adjudicator. The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) refused to disclose the requested information, applying section 22 (information intended for future publication) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that BEIS incorrectly applied section 22 of the FOIA in this case. However, as BEIS have now published much of the information to which the exemption was applied and the complainant does not dispute the additional exemptions subsequently applied to the remaining information, the Commissioner does not require BEIS to take any further steps in this matter.FOI 22: Complaint upheld
