Summary: The complainant requested details of the expense claims, including copies of receipts, for Jim Knight MP. The House of Commons refused the request on the basis of section 22 (information intended for future publication) and argued that the public interest favoured maintaining the exemption. The Commissioner has investigated the circumstances of this case and concluded the House of Commons applied section 22 correctly and in all the circumstances of the case the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in favour of disclosing the information.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 22 - Complaint Not upheld
