Welsh Government

The complainant has requested information shared with the Welsh Government by the UK Government relating to international travel restrictions in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. The Welsh Government initially withheld the requested information under section 35(1)(a) (formulation or development of government policy). It subsequently disclosed some information, and withheld the remainder under section 35(1)(a), section 35(1)(b) (ministerial communications), section 27(1) (prejudice to international relations) and section 28(1) (prejudice to relations between different UK administrations). The Commissioner’s decision is that the Welsh Government was entitled to rely on the exemption at section 28(1) in respect of the requested information.
