Police Service of Northern Ireland
The complainant requested information from the Police Service of Northern Ireland (“PSNI”) about the number of student and police officers charged with or had a criminal conviction during 2019/2020. The Commissioner’s decision is that the PSNI were entitled to refuse to comply with the request under section 12(1) of the FOIA, and that it has complied with its obligations under section 16(1) of the FOIA to provide adequate advice and assistance to the complainant. However, PSNI failed in its obligation to respond within 20 working days of the request, and therefore breached section 10(1) of the FOIA. The Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any further steps.FOI 10: Complaint upheld FOI 16: Complaint not upheld FOI 23: Complaint not upheld
