The complainant has requested information concerning police investigations into allegations that he had made about fraud and false conveyancing of land. Devon and Cornwall Police originally refused to confirm or deny whether it held the information requested under section 40(5) of the FOIA. Devon and Cornwall Police latterly applied section 14(1) (vexatious request) of the FOIA to a further similar request by the complainant. The Commissioner’s decision is that Devon and Cornwall Police (the Police) have handled both requests in accordance with the FOIA and requires no further steps to be taken.
