UK Export Finance

The complainant has requested information about an Export Insurance Policy (“EXIP”). UK Export Finance (“UKEF”) provided some information within scope of the request and withheld the remainder with reliance on section 41(1) (information provided in confidence) and section 43(2)(commercial interests) of FOIA. During the course of the Commissioner’s investigation UKEF also sought to rely on section 40(2)(personal information), section 42(1) (legal professional privilege), and section 27(1)(a)(c) and (d)(international relations) of FOIA to withhold the remainder of the requested information. The Commissioner’s decision is that UKEF is entitled to rely on section 27(1)(a)(c) and (d) to withhold the remainder of the requested information. The Commissioner does not require further steps.
