HM Treasury

The complainant requested the OBR [Office for Budget Responsibility] reports relating to a statement by the then Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng. HM Treasury refused to provide the requested information citing sections 35(1) (formulation of government policy), 29(1) (the economy) and 41(1) (information provided in confidence) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that HM Treasury was entitled to apply section 41(1) to withhold the information. The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken as a result of this decision.

FOI 41: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 202765
