Cabinet Office

The complainant submitted a request to the Cabinet Office seeking a copy of the former Prime Minister, Boris Johnson’s, ministerial diary for the period 1 March 2020 to 16 April 2020. The Cabinet Office refused the request, citing section 14(1) (vexatious requests) FOIA, based on the grossly oppressive burden that complying with the request would impose. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Cabinet Office is entitled to rely on section 14(1) FOIA to refuse to comply with the request. No further steps are required.

FOI 14(1): Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 200771
