Chief Constable of West Yorkshire Police
The complainant has requested information about a police officer who was filmed discharging a PAVA Irritant spray. West Yorkshire Police (“WYP”) disclosed some information, but it relied on various provisions of section 40 (Personal information) to refuse other parts of the request. However, during the Commissioner’s investigation, WYP withdrew its reliance on exemptions to withhold the information which was the subject of the complaint, and it disclosed it. The Commissioner’s decision is that WYP breached sections 1(1)(a) and (b) and section 10(1) by failing to comply with the request within the 20 working day time for compliance.FOI 1(1): Complaint upheld FOI 10(1): Complaint upheld
