Crown Prosecution Service

The complainant requested copies of witness statements relating to the trial of Paul Burrell. The Crown Prosecution Service (“CPS”) refused the request, citing the exemptions for law enforcement (section 31) and personal information (section 40(2)). The Commissioner’s decision is that CPS appropriately applied the exemptions contained in section 31(1)(a)-(c) of the FOIA to withhold the requested information. The Commissioner does not require CPS to take any steps.

FOI 31(1): Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 262880
