13 March 2017, Police and criminal justice
The complainant has requested information about officers connected to an investigation being undertaken by the Independent Police Complaints Commission (the “IPCC”). Having disclosed most of the requested information, the IPCC refused to provide the ranks of the remaining two officers on the basis that this would identify them and thereby breach the Data Protection Act 1998 (the “DPA”). The Commissioner’s decision is that section 40(2)(personal information) is properly engaged in respect of one officer. However, in respect of the other officer, the Commissioner requires the IPCC to disclose the rank.
FOI 40: Partly upheld
