Crown Prosecution Service
The complainant requested information from the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) relating to their involvement in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets Election Petition Judgment of 2015. During the course of the Commissioner’s investigation, the CPS clarified the amount of information it held within the scope of the request. It provided some information within the scope of those parts of the request that comprised requests for information but refused to provide the remainder, citing sections 40(2) (personal information) and 42(1) (legal professional privilege) of the FOIA. The Commissioner has concluded that the CPS was entitled to rely on the exemptions at sections 40(2) and 42(1) of the FOIA to withhold the information. She requires no steps to be taken as a result of this decision.FOI 42: Complaint not upheld FOI 40: Complaint not upheld
