Metropolitan Police Service
The complainant has requested information about a “cash for honours” media statement from the Metropolitan Police Service (the “MPS”). The MPS refused to provide the requested information citing sections 31(1)(a)(b) (Law enforcement), 40(2) (Personal information) and 42(1) (Legal professional privilege) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that section 31 of FOIA is properly engaged and the public interest favours maintaining the exemption; he has therefore not found it necessary to consider the other exemptions cited. No steps are required.FOI 31: Complaint not upheld
Decision notice: 169765
