Chief Constable of Lancashire Constabulary
The complainant has requested a written copy of a judgment from a civil court matter. Lancashire Constabulary cited section 40(5B)(a)(i) (personal information) of FOIA to neither confirm nor deny that it holds the requested information. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Constabulary was entitled to rely on section 40(5B)(a)(i) of FOIA to neither confirm nor deny that it holds the requested information. However, the Commissioner finds that the Constabulary breached section 17(1) of FOIA as it failed to issue a refusal notice within the statutory 20 working days. The Commissioner does not require the Constabulary to take any further steps.FOI 40(5B)(a)(i): Complaint not upheld FOI 17: Complaint upheld
