"electronic copies of any documents produced by PICT discussing or evaluating the possible deployment of electronic petitioning systems in Parliament."

So how did the House of Commons deal with it? was it:

[B] A clear refusal notice citing the relevant exemption.

[C] A long winded exercise in spending public money to keep information from the public? You have obviously asked them for information before
