Cabinet Office
The complainant submitted a request to the Cabinet Office seeking information which related to possible processes that might be followed or actions to be undertaken were the Prime Minister to lose his seat in the December 2019 general election. The Cabinet Office confirmed that it held information falling within the scope of the request but refused to disclose it on the basis of section 36(2)(b)(ii) (effective conduct of public affairs) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the information is exempt from disclosure on the basis of section 36(2)(b)(ii) of FOIA and that in all the circumstances of the request the public interest favours maintaining the exemption.FOI 36: Complaint not upheld
