Animals in Science Committee

The complainant has requested information relating to the Animals in Science Committee and its work. The Animals in Science Committee (“the public authority”) disclosed some information but withheld other information under section 36(2)(b)(ii) (prejudice to the effective conduct of public affairs) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the public authority was correct to withhold the information it did under section 36(2)(b)(ii).  The Commissioner does not require further steps.
