Devon and Cornwall Constabulary
9 May 2016, Police and criminal justice
The complainant has requested information about the investigation into the possible involvement of Robert Black in the disappearance of Genette Tate in 1978. Devon and Cornwall Police (“D&CP”) stated that it held information that was relevant to the request but that it was exempt from disclosure under sections 30(1) (investigations and proceedings) and section 40(2) (personal information) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that D&CP was entitled to apply section 30(1) to withhold the information. The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken.
FOI 30: Not upheld
