The complainant has requested internal correspondence between DBT’s press office team regarding “DP World”. DBT confirmed holding information in the scope of the request but withheld the information in reliance on FOIA sections 36(2)(b)(i) and 36(2)(b)(ii) – Prejudice to effective conduct of public affairs. The Commissioner’s decision is that DBT has appropriately withheld the requested information on the basis of sections 36(2)(b)(i) and (ii). The information is therefore exempt from disclosure on the basis of those exemptions and the public interest favours maintaining the exemptions. The Commissioner does not require further steps.
