Chief Constable Lancashire Constabulary

The complainant has requested information about Type A intruder alarm systems from Lancashire Constabulary. Although Lancashire Constabulary initially disclosed the requested information, it subsequently advised the complainant that the information was exempt from disclosure, under sections 31(1)(a) and (b) (Law enforcement) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that Lancashire Constabulary was entitled to rely on section 31(1)(a) of FOIA. No steps are required.
