Metropolitan Police Service

The complainant has requested information about an undercover police officer from the Metropolitan Police Service (the “MPS”). The MPS refused to confirm or deny whether it held the information citing sections 30(3) (investigations and proceedings) and 40(5) (personal information) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the MPS met with its obligations under section 1 of the FOIA in respect of one part of the request. In respect of the remainder, she finds that section 40(5) is properly engaged. No steps are required.

FOI 1: Complaint not upheld FOI 40: Complaint not upheld
