Metropolitan Police Service

The complainant has requested information from the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) about Operation Snap. MPS disclosed some information within the scope of the request, but withheld the remaining information in accordance with section 40(2) (personal information) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that MPS was correct to rely on section 40(2) to withhold the remaining information. However, MPS breached sections 10(1) and 17(1) of FOIA as it failed to provide its response to the request within the statutory 20 working days. The Commissioner does not require MPS to take any further steps.

FOI 17: Complaint upheld FOI 40(2): Complaint not upheld FOI 10(1): Complaint upheld

Decision notice: 251485
