Hampshire Constabulary
18 June 2015, Police and criminal justice
The complainant requested information concerning expenses incurred by Hampshire Constabulary (the police) arising from a set of criminal and other connected proceedings. The criminal matter had included investigation of a private property in the course of which the police had collaborated with the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) regarding alleged offences against endangered species of birds. The Commissioner found, from the context and history of the request, and the burden already placed on the police by previous connected information requests, that the request had been correctly characterised as vexatious. He decided that the police force had complied with FOIA and does not require it to take any action.
FOI 14: Not upheld
