Dear Mr Inglis,
I am writing with reference to your request for information regarding International
Policing Team Expenses, dated 25th Feb 2010, made under section 1(1) of the
Freedom of Information Act.
You asked for the following information:
I wish to know the expenditure for the financial year 2007/08 of the Acting Supt
attached to you as the International Policing Advisor for Australia and the Far East.
I wish to know all of his expenditure incl Corporate Credit Card and Out of Pocket
(Sundries/Subsistance claims) In particular;
Flights, both internal and International- and Class of travel.
Rail Travel.
Money taken out via Corporate Credit Card.
Hotels used and cost.
Meals.
Entertainment or business meals.
Clothing purchased.
Cars Hired.
Mileage claimed.
TOTAL Expenditure for year 2007/08
The NPIA neither confirms nor denies that it holds any of the information
requested.
To give a statement of the reasons why neither confirming nor denying is
appropriate in this case would itself involve the disclosure of exempt information,
therefore under section 17(4), no explanation can be given. To the extent that
section 40(5) Personal Information applies, the NPIA has determined that in all the
circumstances of the case the public interest in maintaining the exclusion of the
National Policing Improvement Agency
duty to neither confirm nor deny outweighs the public interest in confirming
whether or not information is held.
