Crown Prosecution Service (Decision Notice) [2012] UKICO FS50422684 (01 March 2012)
Summary: The complainant, a firm of solicitors acting on behalf of an applicant, requested a copy of what it described as a named investigator-™s report (the report) from the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS). The complainant asserted that the report existed and was held by CPS in connection with criminal proceedings taken against the applicant. CPS neither confirmed nor denied holding the report. The Commissioner-™s decision is that CPS has complied with FOIA in neither confirming nor denying, under section 30(3) FOIA, whether it did nor did not hold the report. The Commissioner did not require CPS to take any remedial steps to ensure compliance with the legislation. Information Tribunal appeal number EA/2012/0106 dismissed.
