Crown Prosecution Service

The complainant has asked the Crown Prosecution Service (‘the CPS’) for information about the salary of the Independent Assessor of Complaints (‘the IAC’). The CPS refused to disclose some information, citing section 40(2) (Personal information) of FOIA. During the Commissioner’s investigation, it said it did not hold other information specified in the request. The Commissioner’s decision is that section 40(2) was correctly engaged and that, on the balance of probabilities, the CPS does not hold the other information. However, by failing to tell the complainant in its refusal notice that it did not hold the other information, it breached section 1(1)(a) of FOIA.

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

Decision notice: 259477
