FOI Letter Template Americas Directorate Foreign and Commonwealth Office King Charles Street London SW1A 2AH Website: https://www.gov.uk/fco Mr George Greenwood Email: [email protected] 23 October 2017 Dear Mr Greenwood FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT 2000 REQUEST REF: 0567/2017 Thank you for your email of 5 June stating you are happy to continue the following request under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) 2000, as suggested in our internal review. You asked: ‘Please provide all communications between the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and the British embassy in Washington concerning American immigration and border control policy regarding Muslims. Please reduce the scope of my request to the three weeks between 23th January and 12th February’. I am writing to confirm that we have now completed the search for the information which you requested. I can confirm that the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) does hold information relevant to your request. We have carefully considered if we can release this information and conducted the appropriate Public Interest Tests. We can release some of the information and this is attached as a digest of information to be released. However, we do not intend to release the other information relevant to your request as we judge it is exempt from release under the following exemptions of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA): - section 27 (1) (a) (c) (d) (International relations) - section 35 (1) (a) (Formulation of government policy, etc.) - section 40 (2) and (3) (Personal information) 1 - Section 41 (1) (Information provided in confidence) Section 27 (1) (a) (c) and (d) International Relations Some of the information you have requested is being withheld under section 27 (1) (a) (c) and (d) of the FOIA. Section 27 (1) (a) (c) and (d) provides that information is exempt if its disclosure would or would be likely to prejudice the relations between the United Kingdom and any other state, the interests of the UK abroad, or the promotion or protection by the United Kingdom of its interests abroad. In applying section 27, we have had to balance the public interest in withholding the information against the public interest in disclosing it. Factors in favour of disclosure include the strong public interest in transparency and accountability. Disclosure would also increase public knowledge of relations with the United States. Factors against disclosure include the strong public interest in ensuring that the FCO is able to conduct the UK’s international relations effectively and protect UK interests abroad. The effective conduct of the UK’s international relations depends upon maintaining trust and confidence with other governments and international organisations. To do this there must be good working relationships with other governments and international organisations based on confidence and trust. This relationship of trust allows for the free and frank exchange of information on the understanding that it will be treated in confidence. If the UK does not maintain this trust and confidence, its ability to act as a significant player in the international arena, and protect and promote UK interests through international relations, will be hampered. Other governments and international organisations may be more reluctant to share information with the UK Government in future, and may be less likely to respect the confidentiality of information supplied by the UK Government to them, to the detriment of UK interests. For these reasons, we consider that the public interest in maintaining this exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing it. Section 35 (1) (a) (Formulation of government policy, etc.) Section 35 (1) (a) of the Freedom of Information Act relates to the formulation or development of Government policy. This exemption requires the application of a public interest test. It is recognised that there is a public interest in the greater transparency in the decision making process to ensure accountability within public authorities. However, officials need to be able to conduct rigorous and candid risk assessments of their policies and programmes including considerations of the pros and cons without there being premature disclosure which might close off better options and inhibit the free and frank discussion of all policy options. It is our view that disclosure of information referring to the United States would mean that we would risk undermining future decision making and discussion on this subject in future. For these reasons we consider that the public interest in maintaining this exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosure of the information. Section 40 (2) and (3) Personal Information 2 Some of the information you have requested is personal data relating to third parties, the disclosure of which would contravene one of the data protection principles. In such circumstances sections 40 (2) and (3) of the FOIA apply. In this case, our view is that disclosure would breach the first data protection principle. This states that personal data should be processed fairly and lawfully. It is the fairness aspect of this principle which, in our view, would be breached by disclosure. In such circumstances section 40 confers an absolute exemption on disclosure. There is, therefore, no public interest test to apply. Section 41 (1) (Information provided in confidence) Some of the information that you requested has been withheld under Section 41 (1) of the Freedom of Information Act – information provided in confidence. This allows for information to be exempt if it was obtained by the public authority from any other person and the disclosure of the information to the public (otherwise than under this Act) by the public authority holding it would constitute a breach of confidence actionable by that or any other person. Section 41 also confers an absolute exemption on disclosure, and therefore a public interest test is not required. Once an FOI request is answered, it is considered to be in the public domain. To promote transparency, we may now publish the response and any material released on gov.uk in the FOI releases section. All personal information in the letter will be removed before publishing. The copies of information being supplied to you continue to be protected by the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. You are free to use it for your own purposes, including any non-commercial research you are doing and for the purposes of news reporting. Any other re-use, for example commercial publication, would require the permission of the copyright holder. Most documents supplied by the FCO will have been produced by government officials and will be protected by Crown Copyright. To re-use Crown Copyright documents please consult the Open Government Licence v3 on the National Archives website. Information you receive which is not subject to Crown Copyright continues to be protected by the copyright of the person, or organisation, from which the information originated. You must ensure that you gain their permission before reproducing any third party (non-Crown Copyright) information. I hope you are satisfied with this reply. However, if you wish to make a complaint or if you would like a review of our decision, please write to the FOI and DPA Team, Foreign and Commonwealth Office, Room K4.04, King Charles Street, London, SW1A 2AH. E-mail: [email protected]. You have 40 working days to do so from the date of this letter. If you are not content with the outcome of your complaint, you may then apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a decision. Generally, the Information Commissioner cannot make a decision unless you have exhausted the complaints procedure proed by the FCO. The Information Commissioner can be contacted at: Information Commissioner's Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire SK9 5AF. 3 Yours sincerely, US and Canada Department We keep and use information in line with the Data Protection Act 1998. We may release this personal information to other UK government departments and public authorities. 4 FOI 0576-17: DIGEST OF INFORMATION TO BE RELEASED TYPE CONTENT COMMENT 1 Email Report within FCO 10 February 2017 Subject: RE: “Sancuary Cities” Under Pressure: Converations with NYC and Philadelphia From: [REDACTED] Sent: 09 February 2017 18:10 To: [REDACTED] Cc: [REDACTED]; Antonia Romeo (Sensitive); [REDACTED] [REDACTED]; [REDACTED]; [REDACTED]; [REDACTED]; [REDACTED]; [REDACTED]; [REDACTED]; [REDACTED]; [REDACTED]; [REDACTED] Subject: "Sanctuary Cities" Under Pressure: Conversations with NYC and Philadelphia Immigration Offices OFFICIAL_SENSITIVE [REDACTED], Summary 1.

    New cabinet secretary Simon Case has a lot to prove and even more to do Blog post by Senior Associate Joe Armitage, 2 September 2020 Simon Case, who was appointed permanent secretary of 10 Downing Street this May, has been confirmed as the next cabinet secretary. At 41, he is the youngest person in the position since Lord Hankey, for whom the role was created in 1916, during the middle of the Great War. Like Hankey, Case will sit next to the prime minister at meetings of the Cabinet and assume ultimate responsibility for the management of the government’s bureaucracy at one of the most challenging moments in the country’s history. It’s widely known in Whitehall that he wasn’t the first pick for the job. The prime minister hoped Sharon White - the former CEO of OFCOM and current chairwoman of John Lewis - would agree to re-enter government and take on the role instead. Chris Wormald, permanent secretary of the Department for Health and Social Care, is understood to have been considered second favourite. Key Number 10 political staff have placed a great emphasis on recruiting people with a scientific background into key roles, labelling those with arts degrees and a private education as “public school bluffers.” However, like most of their other key appointments to date, Case’s background is not in keeping with this given that he was independently educated before studying History at Cambridge. Unlike most cabinet secretaries he has not served at either the Treasury or the Foreign Office, he also has no experience of leading a significant government delivery department as permanent secretary.

  • Background, Brexit, and Relations with the United States
    The United Kingdom: Background, Brexit, and Relations with the United States Updated April 16, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RL33105 SUMMARY RL33105 The United Kingdom: Background, Brexit, and April 16, 2021 Relations with the United States Derek E. Mix Many U.S. officials and Members of Congress view the United Kingdom (UK) as the United Specialist in European States’ closest and most reliable ally. This perception stems from a combination of factors, Affairs including a sense of shared history, values, and culture; a large and mutually beneficial economic relationship; and extensive cooperation on foreign policy and security issues. The UK’s January 2020 withdrawal from the European Union (EU), often referred to as Brexit, is likely to change its international role and outlook in ways that affect U.S.-UK relations. Conservative Party Leads UK Government The government of the UK is led by Prime Minister Boris Johnson of the Conservative Party. Brexit has dominated UK domestic politics since the 2016 referendum on whether to leave the EU. In an early election held in December 2019—called in order to break a political deadlock over how and when the UK would exit the EU—the Conservative Party secured a sizeable parliamentary majority, winning 365 seats in the 650-seat House of Commons. The election results paved the way for Parliament’s approval of a withdrawal agreement negotiated between Johnson’s government and the EU. UK Is Out of the EU, Concludes Trade and Cooperation Agreement On January 31, 2020, the UK’s 47-year EU membership came to an end.

  • Trump's Twiplomacy
    Trump’s Twiplomacy: A New Diplomatic Norm? Kajsa Hughes Two-year Political Science MA programme in Global Politics and Societal Change Dept. of Global Political Studies Course: Political Science Master’s thesis ST631L (30 credits) Thesis submitted: Summer, 2020 Supervisor: Corina Filipescu Kajsa Hughes 19940526-2867 Political Science: Global Politics Abstract This study examined how Trump frames various countries and their leaders and whether the framing changes from different factors. It also observed whether foreign leaders were following the same path as Trump in their diplomatic communication and interaction on Twitter. This was to contribute more knowledge that connects global politics with social media to see if changes of frames through Twitter caused any global politica l consequences. Theories including realist constructivism and framing theory, along with concepts of social norms, political context, events, and enemy images, were applied to the study. Using directed content analysis, together with longitudinal and comparative elements, the findings showed a separation between Trump’s and the other leaders’ tweets. Almost all tweets were connected to the concepts, and various techniques of framing were identified in tweets from most leaders. However, Trump’s informa l, disdain, and dramatics in his tweets have distanced himself from the rest of the leaders’ posts. Although a couple of leaders’ attempt to be hostile towards Trump and the U.S. in their tweets, they were still formal. It shows that not only is Trump’s Twiplomacy a reflection of American superpower forcefulne ss, but also a unique form that the rest choose to ignore. Keywords: framing, social norms, Trump, Twiplomacy, Twitter, Word count: 21,979 1 Kajsa Hughes 19940526-2867 Political Science: Global Politics Table of Contents 1.

The resolution (H. Res. 826), passed by a 223-190 vote, doesn’t actually make any changes to federal policy. However, Democrats argue they need to oppose any effort to undercut Obamacare’s expansion of the public health insurance program for the poor. “This White House is putting Medicaid on a chopping block,” Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-N.J.) said. o The Trump administration proposal, announced late in January, would let the federal government give states a lump sum to spend on Medicaid instead of the currently unlimited amount of funding it can give, which grows and shrinks based on state need. Administration officials say the shift would give states the opportunity to lower what they spend on Medicaid and reap some of the savings for other public programs.
