  • Decision(s) FOI 14: Not upheld

The complainant requested information from HM Treasury (“HMT”) relating to previous FOIA request. HMT refused the request under section 14(1) of FOIA (vexatious requests). The Commissioner’s decision is that the request was vexatious and therefore HMT was entitled to rely upon section 14(1) of FOIA to refuse it. The Commissioner does not require any steps. Information Tribunal FTT EA/2023/0462 appeal allowed in part.
