The complainant has requested information relating to Prince Andrew from the Metropolitan Police Service (the ‘MPS’). The MPS refused to confirm or deny holding the information, citing the exemptions at sections 24(2) (National security), 31(3) (Law enforcement), 38(2) (Health and safety) and 40(5) (Personal information) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the MPS was entitled to rely on section 24(2) of the FOIA to refuse the request. No steps are required.
