Metropolitan Police Service

The complainant has requested correspondence about policing a vigil for Sarah Everard from the Metropolitan Police Service (the “MPS”). The MPS advised that to respond to the request would be burdensome and it refused to do so citing section 14(1)(Vexatious requests) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the MPS breached section 10(1) of FOIA by failing to respond to the request within the statutory time limit. He also finds that the request is vexatious. No steps are required.

FOI 10: Complaint upheld FOI 14: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: ic-136062
