Northumbria Police (Decision Notice) [2012] UKICO FS50401605 (13 February 2012)
Summary: The complainant requested information relating to the attempted murder of Martin McGartland in 1999 and Northumbria Police-™s investigation of that incident. The Commissioner-™s decision is that Northumbria Police was correct to deem the request vexatious within the meaning of section 14(1) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the Act). The Commissioner however finds that Northumbria Police breached section 10 of the Act by failing to respond to the complainant-™s request within the 20 day time for compliance. The Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any steps in this matter.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 10 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 14 - Complaint Not upheld
