The complainant submitted a request to the Cabinet Office seeking a schedule of information falling within the scope of two previous FOI requests he had submitted to it. The Cabinet Office refused to comply with the request on the basis of sections 14(1) (vexatious) and 14(2) (repeated request) of FOIA. The Commissioner concluded that the request is neither vexatious nor repeated and therefore the Cabinet Office is not entitled to rely on section 14(1) or section 14(2) to refuse to comply with the request.
