I didn't know you had asked a similar question in an email of 24 December 2009. Unfortunately, that does give them a valid FOI exemption and saves them having to use any other exemption.
Things to do with this request

Some of it would have been obtained before they decided to investigate, some of it would have been created after they concluded their investigation and some of it would have been created as a result of the investigation rather than obtained in the course of or for the purposes of an investigation.
Be prepared to complain to the ICO.
