ICO The complainant has requested information relating to the Airports Commission. The Cabinet Office refused to provide this citing section 35(1)(a) and section 40(2) as its basis for doing so. These exemptions relate to the formulation and development of government policy and the unfair disclosure of personal data. It upheld this position at internal review. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Cabinet Office is entitled to rely on these exemptions as its basis for refusing to provide the requested information. No steps are required.
