The complainant has requested information about the UK Universities and Spinouts Review. HM Treasury (“HMT”) refused to comply with the request, citing section 14(1) (vexatious requests) of FOIA as it’s basis for doing so. The Commissioner’s decision is that HMT was entitled to rely on section 14(1) of FOIA to refuse to comply with the request. The Commissioner does not require HMT to take any further steps.
