  • Decision(s) FOI 35: Upheld
The complainant requested information on the number of times the Reducing Regulation Committee (“the RRC”) has met. The Cabinet Office refused the request, stating that section 35(1)(a) and (b) applied. The Commissioner’s decision is that section 35(1) is engaged but that the balance of the public interest favours disclosure of the information. The Commissioner requires the public authority to disclose the requested information to the complainant. Information Tribunal appeal EA/2013/0119 dismissed.
