Metropolitan Police Service

The complainant has requested training guides, or their equivalent, for its officers, from the Metropolitan Police Service (the “MPS”). Having originally disclosed some information and cited exemptions in respect of the remainder, at internal review the MPS advised that to comply with the request would exceed the appropriate limit as section 12 (Cost of compliance) FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the MPS was entitled to rely on section 12 FOIA and that it did not breach section 16 (Advice and assistance). However, he finds that it breached section 10(1) by failing to comply with section 1(1)(a) within the statutory time period. No steps are required.

FOI 10: Complaint upheld FOI 16: Complaint not upheld FOI 12: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 183946
