The complainant has requested copies of the full accounts for Police Crime Prevention Initiatives Ltd (-˜PCPI-™). The Mayor-™s Office for Policing and Crime (-˜MOPAC-™) provided links to publicly available information and stated that it did not hold any further information within scope of the request. At internal review it asked PCPI to provide a copy of its accounts and stated that no further information was held within scope of the request. The Commissioner-™s decision is that PCPI held the requested information on behalf of MOPAC for the purposes of FOIA, but, on the balance of probabilities, no further information was held within scope of the request. He also finds that MOPAC breached section 1(1)(b) and 10(1) of FOIA by providing information to which the complainant was entitled outside the statutory timeframe. The Commissioner does not require further steps.
