Cabinet Office

The complainant submitted a request to the Cabinet Office seeking correspondence between it and the University of Southampton about a particular archive. He subsequently requested a schedule of all of the correspondence falling within the scope of the request. The Cabinet Office disclosed one email and sought to withhold further information on the basis of sections 21 (information reasonable accessible to the requester) and 40(2) (personal data). It subsequently disclosed the information previously withheld on the basis of section 21. The complainant sought to challenge the Cabinet Office’s reliance on section 40, argued that it held further information falling within the scope of his request and was dissatisfied with the Cabinet Office’s failure to provide him with a schedule of the requested information.

FOI 40: Complaint partly upheld FOI 1: Complaint not upheld
