Freedom of Information and Parliamentary Questions: Impact Assessments
The question
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, if he will make it his policy to ensure that the criteria which define when impact assessments can be released are the same for Freedom of Information requests and Parliamentary Questions.
Answered by Georgia Gould
All freedom of Information requests are considered on their individual merits and in accordance with the legislation in all circumstances. Section 9 of the Ministerial Code sets the standard of conduct expected of ministers in relation to Parliament and how they discharge their duties, including for government responses to written parliamentary questions.
