West Yorkshire Police
6 July 2017, Police and criminal justice
The complainant has requested information about the number of ‘informal’ staff complaints/grievances raised in a specific department from West Yorkshire Police (“WYP”). WYP provided some information but advised that to provide the remainder would exceed the appropriate limit at section 12(1) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that WYP has correctly applied section 12(1) of the FOIA; however, she finds a breach of section 10(1) (time for compliance) as well as a breach of section 16(1) in that it failed to provide adequate advice and assistance. No steps are required.
FOI 10: Upheld FOI 16: Upheld FOI 12: Not upheld
