Cabinet Office

The complainant has requested copies of agreements between the UK Government’s Principal Partners for the 26th UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP26) and the amounts paid to each of the Principal Partners. The Cabinet Office withheld the requested information on the basis of section 43(2) (commercial interests) of FOIA. During the course of the Commissioner’s investigation of this complaint the Cabinet Office published the amount paid to each of the Principal Partners, but maintained its position that the agreements were exempt from disclosure on the basis of section 43(2). The Commissioner’s decision is that the agreements are not exempt from disclosure on basis of section 43(2) of FOIA.

FOI 43(2): Complaint upheld

Decision notice: 128103
