Metropolitan Police Service
The complainant has requested information about crime-handling from the Metropolitan Police Service (the “MPS”). The MPS has engaged with the complainant and provided some information but this has not satisfied his request. It ultimately advised the complainant that it considered he was seeking “commentary, opinion and explanations” which it was not required to respond to. The Commissioner finds that the request is compliant with section 8 (Request for information) of FOIA. He requires the MPS to provide details of any policy, or recorded information, which explains how the MPS deals with crimes which come to its attention when these have not been reported by a third party.FOI 8: Complaint upheld
