Metropolitan Police Service

The complainant requested from Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) information relating to offences on Westminster Bridge within the last 8 years. MPS refused to comply with the request and cited section 12(1) (cost of compliance exceeds that appropriate limit) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that MPS was entitled to refuse to comply with the request in accordance with section 12(1) of FOIA. The Commissioner also finds that MPS complied with its obligations under section 16(1) of FOIA to offer advice and assistance. Therefore, the Commissioner does not require MPS to take any steps as a result of this decision.

FOI 12(1): Complaint not upheld FOI 16(1): Complaint not upheld
