- Decision(s) FOI 14: Not upheld
The complainant requested information concerning the application by Hampshire Constabulary (the police), when prosecuting alleged road traffic offences, of guidelines produced by the then Association of Chief Police Officers. The police relied on the section 14(1) FOIA exemption in refusing the request which was one of a set of overlapping and similar requests. The Commissioner’s decision is that the police applied the section 14(1) FOIA exemption to this request correctly and that there are no further steps to be taken. Information Tribunal appeal EA/2016/0198 allowed.
