Ministry of Defence

The complainant submitted a request to the Ministry of Defence seeking information about a meeting a defence Minister had with particular companies in April 2018. The MOD provided information in response to request but in doing so redacted information from documents on the basis of sections 27(1)(a) and (c) (international relations) and 43(2) (commercial interests) of FOIA. The complainant challenged its reliance on these exemptions. The Commissioner decision is that the redacted information is exempt from disclosure on the basis of sections 27(1)(a) and (c) or section 43(2) and that the public interest favours maintaining each of exemptions.

FOI 43: Complaint not upheld FOI 27: Complaint not upheld
