Please provide a full itinerary of the Chancellor’s trip to the United States in December 2021, including any and all meetings, appointments, calls, events and commitments. Please include all of the above even if an event was ultimately cancelled due to the curtailment of the trip.
For each of the above, please include:
- Meeting purpose
- Full list of participants, including any who were unable to attend on short notice, and the capacity in which they were attending
- Time and date of meeting
- Expected duration
- Location
- Agenda if available
Please also provide a list of staff who accompanied the Chancellor, whether Government or civil service.
Please also confirm the date upon which the California trip was first discussed and the date upon which it was decided upon. A calendar week will suffice.

Dear FOI Requests,
I would like this decision to be internally reviewed.
I do not accept that it would take 3.5 days to gather this information. Unless the Chancellor was not provided an itinerary or briefing regarding his own trip, this information has already been generated and collated.
Additionally, it is hard to accept that the requested information cannot be easily gathered from ministerial calendars, as the information I requested is the standard data and metadata provided for calendar invitations and briefings.
Yours sincerely,
Andrew Keenan
