Dear Mr Hansen,
Freedom of Information request (our ref. 12076 internal review)
Thank you for your e-mail of 31 June 2009, in which you asked for an internal review
of our response to your Freedom of Information (FoI) request about the ‘cal to
evidence’, made by Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary in the wake of the
G20 protests.
I have now completed the review. I have examined all the relevant papers and have
consulted the policy unit which provided the original response. I have considered
whether the correct procedures were followed and the content of the information
provided to you. I confirm that I was not involved in the initial handling of your
request.
My findings are set out in the attached report. My main conclusion is that the original
response was broadly correct; however it failed to formally state that the requested
information was not held, as is required under Section 1 of the Act. This completes
the internal review process by the Home Office.
If you remain dissatisfied with the response to your FoI request, you have the right of
complaint to the Information Commissioner at the following address:
The Information Commissioner

Yours sincerely
Robert Clifford
