HM Treasury
The complainant has requested a file about Parliamentary annuities to the Royal Family listed at The National Archives but retained by HM Treasury (“HMT”). HMT refused to provide it citing sections 40(2) (personal data), section 41(1) (information provided in confidence) and section 37(1)(ac) (communications with members of the Royal Family). It upheld this at internal review. The Commissioner’s decision is that HMT is entitled to rely on section 40(2), section 41(1) and section 37(1)(ac) as its basis for withholding the requested information. The Commissioner does not require further steps.FOI 40: Complaint not upheld FOI 37: Complaint not upheld FOI 41: Complaint not upheld
