The Commissioner’s decision is that the Cabinet Office was not entitled to rely on the exemption at 37(1)(b). The Commissioner also finds that the Cabinet Office breached section 10(1) of the FOIA in its handling of the request. The Commissioner requires the Cabinet Office to Disclose the information withheld under section 37.
