Metropolitan Police Service

The complainant has requested information from the Metropolitan Police Service (the “MPS”) about whether or not it had conducted a particular investigation. The MPS refused to confirm or deny whether it had done, citing the exemptions at sections 40(5) (Personal information), 30(3) (Investigations and proceedings) and 31(3) (Law enforcement) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the MPS was entitled to rely on section 40(5) of the FOIA to issue a neither confirm nor deny response. No steps are required..

FOI 40: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: ic-80690
