Metropolitan Police Service

The complainant has requested information related to the 1985 Broadwater Farm riots from the Metropolitan Police Service (the “MPS”). The MPS would initially neither confirm nor deny (“NCND”) holding the requested information. It subsequently revised its position, eventually advising that some information was not held, it would exceed the cost limit at section 12(2) to comply with part of the request and some was exempt by virtue of section 40(5) (Personal information) of FOIA; it also relied on sections 31(1)(a) & (b) (Law enforcement) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the MPS dealt appropriately with the request. No steps are required.

FOI 40: Complaint not upheld FOI 1: Complaint not upheld FOI 12: Complaint not upheld
