Dear FOI Requests,
Clearly I made a typo in the date, as my initial FOI query above is the date where the Rt Hon Jeremy Hunt did meet with this particularly company.
So could I please modify this request to cover the meeting with Rt Hon Jeremy Hunt MP on 27/11/2023. And I would only be requesting the following:
- List of attendees at the meeting
- Notes and agenda taken during the meeting
- Any presentations or documents shared ahead of or during the meeting
Please let me know if you have any additional questions on this request.
Yours sincerely,
Mark B

Dear Mark B,
Thank you for your enquiry of 24th October, requesting:
"Dear FOI Requests,
Clearly I made a typo in the date, as my initial FOI query above is the
date where the Rt Hon Jeremy Hunt did meet with this particularly company.
So could I please modify this request to cover the meeting with Rt Hon
Jeremy Hunt MP on 27/11/2023. And I would only be requesting the
following:
- List of attendees at the meeting
- Notes and agenda taken during the meeting
- Any presentations or documents shared ahead of or during the meeting
Please let me know if you have any additional questions on this request."
Following a search of our records, we can confirm that HM Treasury does
hold information within the scope of your request.
We have identified information that falls within the scope of your
request, which we believe engages the following exemptions: Section 43(2).
This is a qualified exemption, and we are required to balance the public
interest between disclosure and non-disclosure. By virtue of section 10(3)
of the FOI Act, where public authorities have to consider the balance of
the public interest in relation to a request, they do not have to comply
with the request until such time as is reasonable in the circumstances.
We always aim to reply to requests in full within twenty working days,
even when the balancing of the public interest is required; however, in
this case, the Treasury has not yet resolved the different considerations.
We therefore need to take some additional time to assess whether the
public interest in withholding the information outweighs the public
interest in disclosing it.
We estimate that it will take us another 20 working days to complete our
consideration, although we will of course reply sooner if possible. We
therefore expect to provide our substantive reply by 20th December.
Yours sincerely,
Information Rights Unit | Correspondence and Information Rights | HM
