The complainant has requested from Durham Constabulary information about its investigation into Dominic Cummings’ trip to Durham to self isolate, in March 2020. Durham Constabulary disclosed some information but withheld the investigation report, citing the non-disclosure exemptions at sections 30(1)(a)(i) (Investigations and proceedings) and 40(2) (Personal information) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that Durham Constabulary was entitled to rely on section 30(1)(a)(i) to withhold the investigation report.
