The reasons why this exemption applies are explained below. Reasons for not providing information Exemptions apply, subject to the public interest tests. Section 30(b)(ii) - free and frank exchange of views for the purposes of deliberation Exemptions under sections 30(b)(ii) of FOISA (free and frank provision of advice and exchange of views) apply to some of the information requested.
