The second FOI Decision Maker claimed that releasing this information would have a ‘serious adverse effect on the financial interests of the State’ and he refused my request. This is a completely false claim because the Bank of England has provided such a list to the Reserve Bank of Australia for the 80 tonnes of gold it stores with them.
