South Yorkshire Police

The complainant has requested from South Yorkshire Police (SYP) information about allegations that it took a decision not to investigate reports of child sexual exploitation (CSE) in Sheffield. SYP responded by saying that to confirm or deny whether it held the requested information would exceed the appropriate costs limit at section 12(2) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that SYP was entitled to cite section 12(2) of the FOIA and that it had met its obligations under section 16(1) of the FOIA with regard to the provision of advice and assistance.

FOI 12: Complaint not upheld FOI 16: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: IC-40123
