Montague v The Information Commissioner and Department for International Trade: UTAA 13 Apr 2022

Whether, when multiple FOIA exemptions are engaged by a single piece of information, the separate public interests in maintaining those different exemptions may be aggregated when weighing them against the public interest in disclosure; whether information that is disclosed after a public authority’s decision on a request (for example, during the Commissioner’s investigation, in the course of First-tier Tribunal proceedings or as a result of a Tribunal’s decision) should be treated as in the public domain for the purpose of weighing the public interest in disclosure of any remaining requested information; whether a public authority’s decision on a request includes any later decision by it on review of its initial decision refusing the request.
