The complainant has requested information about a motoring offence which he allegedly committed from the Metropolitan Police Service (the “MPS”). The MPS would neither confirm nor deny holding the information, citing sections 40(5)(a) and (b)(i) (personal information) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that it was correct to cite section 40(5)(a). No steps are required.
FOI 40: Not upheld
