10 February 2016, Police and criminal justice
The complainant has requested that Cambridgeshire Constabulary (the ‘Constabulary’) confirm or deny whether it has used RIPA to intercept journalists’ communications data. The Constabulary refused to deal with the request stating that it was a question rather than a request for recorded information. The Commissioner’s decision is that it is a valid request and that the Constabulary should therefore provide a response. The Commissioner requires the Constabulary disclose the requested information or issue a fresh refusal notice in compliance with section 17 of FOIA.
FOI 8: Upheld
