The complainant has requested a copy of correspondence from the Metropolitan Police (the MPS) to the FBI regarding a historical murder. The Commissioner’s decision is that, on the balance of probabilities the requested information is not held by MPS. However, the Commissioner finds that the MPS breached section 10(1) of FOIA as it failed to provide its response to the request within the statutory timeframe of 20 working days. The Commissioner does not require the MPS to take any steps.
