Attorney General's Office

The complainant requested correspondence between the Serious Fraud Office’s Departmental Trade Unions and Sir David Calvert-Smith in connection with his 21 July 2022 report. The Attorney General’s Office (AGO) refused the request, citing the exemption for prejudice to the effective conduct of public affairs (section 36(2)). The Commissioner’s decision is that the AGO was entitled to rely on section 36(2)(b)(ii) to refuse the request. The Commissioner does not require the AGO to take any steps.

FOI 36(2)(b)(ii): Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 207230
