Crown Prosecution Service

  • Date 23 January 2017
  • Sector Police and criminal justice
  • Decision(s) FOI 30: Not upheld

The complainant has requested copies of correspondence received by the Crown Prosecution Service (the “CPS”) relating to a specific case. The CPS refused to provide this, citing sections 30(1)(c) and 40(2) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that section 30(1)(c) is engaged and the public interest favours maintaining the exemption. She has not therefore considered the application of section 40(2). No steps are required.
