9 June 2015, Education (College)
The complainant requested legal advice received by the College of Policing (the College) on the issue of making the “disapproved register” of former police officers publicly available. The College refused to disclose this information under the exemption provided by section 42(1) (legal professional privilege) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the College cited section 42(1) correctly and so it was not obliged to disclose this information.
FOI 42: Not upheld
