The complainant has requested a copy of a Senior Investigating Officer (SIO)’s report written in connection with a case concerning alleged misconduct in public office from the Metropolitan Police Service (the ‘MPS’). The MPS refused to provide the requested information citing the exemptions at 30(1)(a) (investigations and proceedings) and 40(2) (personal information) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the MPS was entitled to rely on section 30(1)(a) to withhold the information. No steps are required.
