Chief Constable of Cleveland Police

The complainant requested information from Cleveland Police about members of staff working on Operation Magnolia and their relevant training. Cleveland Police relied on section 14(1) of FOIA (vexatious) to refuse the request. The Commissioner’s decision is that the request was vexatious and therefore Cleveland Police was entitled to rely upon section 14(1) of FOIA to refuse it. The Commissioner does not require any steps.
