Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Service
19 May 2016, Police and criminal justice
The complainant has requested statistics covering ethnicity and misconduct / dismissal. The Metropolitan Police Service (the ‘MPS’) advised that to comply with the request would exceed the appropriate limit at section 12(1) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the MPS was entitled to rely on section 12(1), however, he finds that it breached section 10(1) of the FOIA in that it failed to provide a response to the request within the statutory time for compliance. No steps are required.
FOI 10: Upheld FOI 12: Not upheld
