Dyfed Powys Police
- Date 27 April 2017
- Sector Police and criminal justice
- Decision(s) FOI 30: Upheld, FOI 38: Upheld, FOI 40: Partly upheld
The complainant has requested anonymised information about recorded murder offences from Dyfed-Powys Police (“DPP”). DPP provided some information but withheld the remainder citing sections 40(2) (personal information), 30(1)(a) (investigations and proceedings) and 38(1)(health and safety) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that section 40(2) is partially engaged; she finds that section 30(1) is engaged but that the public interest in disclosure outweighs that in maintaining the exemption; she finds that section 38(1) is not engaged. The Commissioner requires DPP to disclose the information withheld for three of the six cases concerned.
