Cabinet Office
The complainant submitted a request to the Cabinet Office seeking a copy of a feasibility study into the possibility of moving the House of Lords to York. The Cabinet Office withheld the information on the basis of section 35(1)(a) (formulation and development of government policy) of FOIA, or in the alternative, section 36(2)(b)(ii) (prejudice to the effective conduct of public affairs) of FOIA. The Commissioner has concluded that the withheld information is exempt from disclosure on the basis of section 35(1)(a) and that in all the circumstances of the case the public interest favours maintaining the exemption.FOI 35: Complaint not upheld
