- Decision(s) FOI 1: Not upheld, FOI 14: Not upheld
The complainant submitted two requests to the Cabinet Office seeking information about ‘Five Eyes’ meeting which took place in May 2023. The Cabinet Office responded by stating that it did not hold the requested information and refused one part of the request on the basis of section 14(2) (repeated requests) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that on the balance of probabilities the Cabinet Office does not hold information falling within the scope of the complainant’s requests and that it is entitled to rely on section 14(2) in the manner in which it has.
