Cabinet Office

The complainant requested information relating to a meeting between the UK Prime Minister and the Dalai Lama in May 2008. The Cabinet Office refused the request, citing section 27 (prejudice to international relations), section 40 (third party personal data) and section 41 (information provided in confidence). The Commissioner’s decision is that the exemption at section 27 is engaged in respect of the withheld information, and the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information. No steps are required.

FOI 17: Complaint upheld FOI 27: Complaint not upheld
