- Decision(s) FOI 43: Partly upheld
The complainant submitted a request to the Cabinet Office seeking information about the decision to cancel a procurement framework by the Crown Commercial Service. The Cabinet Office disclosed some of the information requested but sought to withhold further information on the basis of section 43(2) of FOIA. The Commissioner has concluded that only some of this information is exempt from disclosure on the basis of section 43(2). However, the Commissioner does accept that for the information which is exempt from disclosure on the basis of this exemption the public interest favours withholding this information.
