Summary: The complainant made a nine-part request to the Metropolitan Police Service (-the public authority-) for information about the costs of royal protection. Information about the first part of the request was withheld under the exemption at section 12(1) (cost of compliance exceeds appropriate limit). The public authority refused to confirm or deny whether any further information was held by virtue of the exemptions at sections 24(2) (national security), 31(3) (law enforcement) and 38(2) (health and safety). During the Commissioner-s investigation the complainant agreed to withdraw her complaint in respect of part nine of her request. The Commissioner-s decision is that parts one to eight of the request can be aggregated for costs purposes as they follow an overarching theme and that to provide the information would exceed the appropriate limit. He has not therefore considered whether or not the public authority was correct in neither confirming nor denying information is held in respect of parts two to eight of the request. The complaint is not upheld.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 12 - Complaint Not upheld
