Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Service
3 November 2016, Police and criminal justice
The complainant has requested information about Trident referrals from the Metropolitan Police Service (the “MPS”). The MPS refused to confirm or deny whether they held information within the scope of this request and cited the exemptions provided by sections 23(5) (information relating to, or supplied by, security bodies), 24(2) (national security) and 31(3) (law enforcement) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that sections 23(5) and 24(2) were cited correctly so the MPS was not obliged to confirm or deny whether the requested information was held. No steps are required.
