Metropolitan Police Service

The complainant has requested discipline-related information about officers in its Domestic and Sexual Offences Unit from the Metropolitan Police Service (the “MPS”). The MPS initially refused to confirm of deny holding any information, citing sections 31(3) (Law enforcement) and 40(5) (Personal information) of FOIA. During the Commissioner’s investigation it revised its position. It confirmed holding information but advised that it was exempt from disclosure under sections 40(2) and 31(1)(g)(2)(b) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that section 40 is properly engaged. No steps are required.

FOI 40: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 230147
