- Decision(s) FOI 12: Not upheld
The complainant has requested information relating to the procurement and implementation of software to replace one of its systems from the Metropolitan Police Service (the “MPS”). The MPS refused to comply with the request saying that to do so would exceed the cost limit at section 12(1) of the FOIA.
The Commissioner’s decision is that section 12(1) was properly applied. She also finds no breach of section 16 (advice and assistance) of the FOIA. No steps are required.
