3 January 2018, Central government
The complainant has requested information on the vote cast by the United Kingdom on the installation of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to the UN Commission on the Status of Women. The request was refused under section 27 – international relations. During the course of the Commissioner’s investigation the Department also applied section 40(2) to withhold the names of junior officials. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Department is entitled to rely on section 27 to withhold the majority of the information and section 40(2) to withhold the remaining information. The Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any further action in this matter.
