The PMO had said this while responding to a RTI application filed by Dahal and Ghimire on last September 12.
The applicants said that the information sought was related to decisions passed by the Cabinet and not the documents under process.
It was also alleged in the appeal that the public accountability was all ignored bearing in mind the culture of maintaining confidentiality.
The duo had used RTI to demand information about the ordinances presented before the President by the Council of Ministers during the period from Constituent Assembly (CA) dissolve to this date.
