  • Date 8 August 2025
  • Sector Central government
  • Decision(s) FOI 14(1): Not upheld

The complainant requested information relating to records linked to the decision of the UK to leave the EU. The Cabinet Office relied on section 14(1) of FOIA (vexatious requests) to refuse the request.
The Commissioner’s decision is that the request was vexatious and therefore the Cabinet Office was entitled to rely upon section 14(1) of FOIA to refuse it. 
The Commissioner does not require any steps.
