- Decision(s) FOI 27: Not upheld
The complainant has requested information concerning allegations of corruption in the Cayman Islands and the decision by the Governor of the Cayman Islands to dismiss these. The Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) refused the request under the exemption provided by section 27(1)(a) (prejudice to international relations) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the FCO applied the exemption provided by section 27(1)(a) correctly and so it is not required to disclose this information.
