Thames Valley Police (Decision Notice) [2012] UKICO FS50453212 (18 September 2012)
Summary: The complainant requested information held by Thames Valley Police (the police) about a named individual. The police refused to confirm or deny whether it held this information and cited the exemption provided by section 40(5) (personal information) of the FOIA. The Commissioner-™s decision is that section 40(5) was applied correctly and so the police are not required to confirm or deny whether information falling within the scope of the request is held. This decision notice is currently under appeal to the Information Tribunal.
