The complainant has requested information concerning dropped charges against a named individual for driving without a valid MOT certificate. The CPS refused to disclose the information, citing the exemption provided by section 40(2). The decision of the Commissioner is that the exemption that should have been cited was section 40(5) and that the CPS should have neither confirmed nor denied whether it held this information. Information Tribunal appeal number EA/2012/0191 dismissed.
