West Yorkshire Police

The complainant has requested information from West Yorkshire Police in relation to one of its police vehicles. West Yorkshire Police applied section 40(5) of FOIA to the requested information as it refused to either confirm or deny whether it held that information. The Commissioner’s decision is that West Yorkshire Police has incorrectly applied section 40(5) of FOIA to the requested information. The Commissioner therefore requires West Yorkshire Police to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: To issue a fresh response to the complainant’s request without relying upon the NCND provisions of section 40(5) of FOIA.

FOI 40: Complaint upheld

Decision notice: 129080
