- Decision(s) FOI 30: Not upheld
The complainant has requested, from Merseyside Police, information connected to a murder investigation. Merseyside Police confirmed holding the information but refused to provide it citing sections 30(1) (Investigations and proceedings) and 40(2) (Personal information) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that section 30 is properly engaged and the public interest favours maintaining the exemption. No steps are required.
