Dorset Police

The complainant has requested information about accidents and speeding enforcement measures on a particular stretch of road. Dorset Police disclosed most of the requested information. However, it withheld information on some of the reasons why speeding tickets had been cancelled, citing sections 31(1)(a), (b) and (c) (Law enforcement) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that Dorset Police was entitled to rely on the cited exemptions to withhold most of the information. However, he found that a small amount of information was not exempt under section 31. The Commissioner requires Dorset Police to disclose the information identified in the confidential annex which accompanies this notice, which has been supplied only to Dorset Police.

FOI 31(1)(a): Complaint partly upheld FOI 31(1)(c): Complaint partly upheld FOI 31(1)(b): Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 232514
