Cambridgeshire Constabulary
The complainant has requested information about an action undertaken by Cambridgeshire Constabulary. Cambridgeshire Constabulary initially directed the complainant to a statement on its website, citing section 21 (Information accessible to applicant by other means) of FOIA. Following an internal review, it confirmed holding further information but did not either disclose this or issue a refusal notice which explained why it was exempt from disclosure. The Commissioner’s decision is that, in failing to properly address the request, Cambridgeshire Constabulary has breached section 1 of FOIA. He requires Cambridgeshire Constabulary to issue a fresh response to the request, either disclosing all information held or issuing a refusal notice which complies with section 17(1) of FOIA, explaining why it is exempt from disclosure.FOI 1: Complaint upheld
