what is the IRAC solution to this problem?

7. A freedom of information request was filed with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission for information about nuclear plant operations that had been pro- vided voluntarily by the plants to the commission on the agreement that the information be kept confi- dential, even though it did not involve trade secrets. The commission refused to release the information, claiming it would injure its working relationship with the plant operators. Was this a proper reason to refuse the information request?
