Thames Valley Police

The complainant submitted a three part request for information about religiously aggravated hate crime to Thames Valley Police (TVP). TVP said that the requested information was exempt from disclosure under sections 30(1)(a) and (b) (Investigations and proceedings) and 40(2) (Personal information) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that TVP was not entitled to rely on the exemptions at section 40(2) or sections 30(1) (a) and (b) of the FOIA to withhold the information described in part (1) of the request. However, she found that it was entitled to rely on section 40(2) of the FOIA to refuse to disclose the information specified in parts (2) and (3) of the request, which she found to be special category data. The Commissioner requires TVP to disclose the information described in part (1) of the request.

FOI 40: Complaint partly upheld FOI 30: Complaint upheld
