We answered
TfL Ref: FOI-1181-2425 Thank you for your request which we received on 11 July 2024.
Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act and our information access policy. I can confirm that we hold the information you require. You specifically asked: Please disclose a copy of the Operations and Maintenance (O&M) contract for the London Cable Car awarded to Doppplemayr Cable Car in March this year.
A copy of the contract will be published on the Government’s Contracts Finder website in a few weeks time, in line with our policy of transparency for contracts: https://www.gov.uk/contracts-finder.
Therefore in accordance with the FOI Act, TfL is not obliged to supply you with the contract you have requested as it is subject to a statutory exemption to the right of access to information, under Section 22 of the Act. In this instance the exemption has been applied as the information you have requested is intended for future publication.
This exemption is subject to a public interest test, which requires us to assess whether the public interest in applying the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosure. In this instance, it is considered that the public interest favours the publication of this information, in context and according to the pre-determined schedule, rather than in response to your request, to ensure the information is provided accurately and in an accessible manner.
Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.
Yours sincerely
Sara Thomas FOI Case Management Team General Counsel Transport for London
