The complainant submitted a request to the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) seeking information relating to meetings between Alexander Nix, CEO Cambridge Analytica and ministers in December 2016. The FCDO disclosed information falling within the scope of the request but withheld certain information on the basis of sections 27(1)(a) and (d) (international relations) and 40(2) (personal data) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the FCDO is entitled to rely on sections 27(1)(a) and (d) to withhold the disputed information.
