Whole of government accounts 2008/2009

Dear Her Majesty's Treasury,

I would like to request the final audited data for the whole of
government accounts exercise for 2008/09, I do not require the
accounts reported for MoD and Dept Health (as I believe these
failed audit).

Yours faithfully,

Lisa Evans

Dear responses, FOI,

Thank you for your response and the balanced argument you give.

I would like to clarify 2 of the arguments given for not releasing
the data:

1. When you state:

"As the information is incomplete and uncertified, a premature
disclosure of information at this time would stand to hamper the
development and consideration of future work in this area;"

what do you mean by the information being incomplete? Have some
departments or government bodies not taken part or have some
departments not given the required details or did not have the
information required?

2. When you state: "Ministers and officals need space in which to
develop policy, including space for the development of policy
through an iterative process of testing and refining ideas. This
process could be weakened if information was released prematurely
or when proposals were not finalised, as this could lead to poorer
decision-making."

I would like a clearer explanation of how this data release could
be lead to poorer decision-making.

Yours sincerely,

Lisa Evans
