MONTAGUE V THE INFORMATION COMMISSIONER AND DEPARTMENT FOR INTERNATIONAL TRADE: [2022] UKUT 104 (AAC) Upper Tribunal Administrative Appeals Chamber decision by Judge Wikeley, Judge Wright


and Judge Church on 13 April 2022 Read the full decision in:UA-2020-00324 and UA-2020-000325-GIA Judicial Summary 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. UPDATES TO THIS PAGE Published 5 May 2022
