10 July 2017, Police and criminal justice
The complainant has requested information about any reviews and assessments carried out by the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) in relation to the handling of cases involving a man who killed someone while suffering a psychotic episode. The CPS refused the request, citing the non-disclosure exemptions at sections 30 (Investigations and proceedings), 36 (Prejudice to the conduct of public affairs), 40 (Personal information) and 42 (Legal professional privilege) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the CPS was entitled to apply section 40(2) of the FOIA to refuse the request.
FOI 40: Not upheld
