Freedom of Information Unit, Crown Prosecution Service

Dear Ms Fox,

Freedom of Information Act 2000 Request - Ref:- 7351

Thank you for your Freedom of Information (FOI) request which we received

on 24 December 2017.

The CPS are required to conduct a public interest test in relation to

your request. This public interest test is required because some of the

information you have requested may engage section 30 (Investigations and

Proceedings) of the FOI Act.

Under section 10(3) of the FOI Act we are entitled to extend the time

limit for FOI requests where the public interest has to be considered by a

reasonable period; the ICO determine a reasonable period for complex

requests such as yours to be an extra 20 working days. We hope to issue a

substantive response to your FOI request as soon as possible, and in any

event within 20 working days of this email. This will be by latest 14

February 2018.

If the public interest is determined to be in favour of withholding

information under this exemption then we will provide a full explanation

of why the exemption is engaged and the public interest factors taken into

consideration.

I realise that the further period of time required may be disappointing

news, if you have any queries please feel free to contact me using the

details below.

Kind regards

Ms F Sayed

Senior Information Management Advisor

Crown Prosecution Service

Rose Court, [1]2 Southwark Bridge, London SE1 9HS
