Metropolitan Police Service

The complainant has requested copies of written correspondence with the Chinese Embassy between specific dates from the Metropolitan Police Service (the “MPS”). The MPS would neither confirm nor deny (“NCND”) holding any information, citing sections 27(4)(a)(b) (International relations), 31(3) (Law enforcement) and 40(5) (Personal information) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the MPS was entitled to rely on section 27(4) to NCND holding the requested information. No steps are required.

FOI 27: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 205995
