  • Decision(s) FOI 10: Upheld, FOI 17: Upheld

The complainant has requested a particular file from the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS). The Commissioner’s decision is that the MPS has failed to complete its deliberations on the balance of the public interest within a reasonable time and has therefore breached section 17(3) of the FOIA. The Commissioner also finds that the Home Office has breached section 10(1) of the FOIA. The Commissioner requires the MPS to issue a substantive response to the request in accordance with its obligations under the FOIA.
