Chief Constable of Hampshire Constabulary
The complainant requested information from Hampshire Constabulary (“the Police”) regarding the number of incidents attended by the Police at a named hotel in the past 48 months. The Police refused to confirm or deny whether relevant information is held and applied section 30(3) of FOIA (Investigations and Proceedings) to neither confirm nor deny holding the requested information. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Police were entitled to apply the exemption at section 30(3) of FOIA to the request to neither confirm nor deny holding the requested information, and that the public interest lies with maintaining the exemption. The Commissioner does not require the Police to take any steps as a result of this decision.FOI 30: Complaint not upheld
