Metropolitan Police Service
The complainant has requested, from the Metropolitan Police Service (the “MPS”), information about services it has provided overseas The MPS disclosed some information but cited 27(1)(a)(b) (International relations) and 31(1)(a)(b) (Law enforcement) of FOIA in respect of the remainder. During the Commissioner’s investigation, the MPS revised its position. It said that some information was not held (which was not disputed) and that the remainder of the request was burdensome, citing section 14(1)(Vexatious requests) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the MPS was entitled to reply on section 14(1) FOIA. However, it breached sections 10(1)(Time for compliance) and 1(1)(a) and (b)(General right of access) of FOIA. No steps are required.FOI 1: Complaint upheld
