Police and Crime Commissioner for Lancashire
The complainant requested information from the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner for Lancashire (“the OPCC”) about complaints it had received about the Chief Constable of Lancashire Police. The OPCC disclosed some information about the number of complaints received and the category of each complaint, but refused to provide details of individual allegations, citing the exemption under section 40(2) (personal information) of the FOIA as its basis for doing so. The Commissioner’s decision is that the OPCC was entitled to withhold the information under section 40(2) of the FOIA. She also found that the OPCC had complied with section 1(1)(b) of the FOIA in that it had correctly disclosed the information it held with regard to complaint numbers.FOI 1: Complaint not upheld FOI 40: Complaint not upheld
