In March 2015 the Supreme Court handed down its judgement in the Evans case, which limited considerably the circumstances in which the FOI veto can be exercised. The government had previously used the veto to withhold a MPA report on the HS2 project. That decision was judicially reviewed. The government is withdrawing from the judicial review proceedings, and is releasing MPA project assessment review reports from 2011 and 2012.
