Cabinet Office

The complainant submitted a request to the Cabinet Office seeking information regarding David Bowie and any honours nominations that he received. The Cabinet Office provided some details regarding the nomination for a CBE that Mr Bowie received in 2000, but withheld the remainder of the information falling within the scope of the request on the basis of sections 37(1)(b) (honours), 40(2) (personal data) and 41(1) (information provided in confidence) of FOIA. The Commissioner has concluded that the withheld information is exempt from disclosure on the basis of section 37(1)(b) and that in all the circumstances of the case the public interest favours maintaining the exemption.

FOI 37: Complaint not upheld
