Metropolitan Police Service

The complainant has requested information about fabricated crime reports from the Metropolitan Police Service (the “MPS”). The MPS advised that to confirm or deny whether it holds the requested information would exceed the appropriate limit at section 12(2) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the MPS was entitled to cite section 12(2) but she does find a breach of section 16(1) (advice and assistance). No steps are required.

FOI 12: Complaint not upheld FOI 16: Complaint upheld
