25 August 2016, Police and criminal justice
The complainant requested information relating to incidents of harassment of West Mercia Police (WMP) solicitors. WMP stated that it was unable to establish whether it held the requested information within the cost limit and cited section 12(2) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that WMP cited section 12(2) correctly so it was not obliged to confirm or deny whether it held the requested information.
FOI 12: Not upheld
