Crown Prosecution Service

The complainant requested information about requests by the Swedish and US authorities to extradite Mr Julian Assange from the UK. Also about his extended stay seeking asylum within the London Embassy of Ecuador and correspondence with the Ecuadorian authorities. She asked the Information Commissioner, in his investigation, to address two issues ‘seriously’: Crown Prosecution Service reliance on the exemptions cited; and, the destruction of emails to and from a named former Crown Prosecution Service officer. The Commissioner decided that the Crown Prosecution Service had complied with FOIA in its reliance on the section 30(1) and 30(3) FOIA (Investigations and Proceedings) exemptions and had correctly redacted personal data from information it had disclosed. The Commissioner did not require the Crown Prosecution Service to take any steps to comply with the legislation.

FOI 30: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: ic-47745
