Department for International Trade

The complainant requested information relating to working groups established by the UK Government and various States to support post-Brexit trade negotiations. The Department for International Trade (DIT) disclosed some information and refused to disclose the remainder, citing sections 27 (prejudice to international relations), section 35 (formulation or development of government policy) and section 40 (third party personal data). The Commissioner’s decision is that the exemptions are engaged in respect of the withheld information, and the public interest in maintaining the exemptions cited outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information.

FOI 40: Complaint not upheld FOI 27: Complaint not upheld FOI 35: Complaint not upheld
