Attorney General's Office
The complainant has requested, from the Attorney General’s Office (the “AGO”), information about advice it has given concerning the UK’s nuclear deterrent and nuclear warheads. The AGO confirmed holding the requested information but refused to disclose it citing section 35(1)(c) (Formulation or development of government policy) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that section 35(1)(c) is properly engaged and that the public interest favours maintaining the exemption. The Commissioner does not require the AGO to take any steps.FOI 35: Complaint not upheld
