The request sought records related to committee studies of foreign election interference. The OIC found that PCO did not respond by the required date and is deemed to have refused access. The delay was attributed to the large volume of records and slow consultations. The Information Commissioner ordered PCO to provide a complete response by November 15, 2024, which PCO has committed to doing.

The Information Commissioner found the complaint to be well-founded, ordering ISC to issue third-party notices by October 1, 2024, and provide a complete response by December 12, 2024.
