Chief Constable Commissioner for the Metropolis (Metropolitan Police Service)

The complainant has requested information relating to the death of an individual. The Metropolitan Police Service (the MPS) neither confirmed nor denied (NCND) whether it held the information, citing sections 30(3) (Investigations and proceedings), 31(3) (Law enforcement), 38(2) (Health and safety) and 40(5) (Personal information). The Commissioner’s decision is that the MPS was entitled to rely on section 30(3) of FOIA to issue the NCND response.
