Dear Sir/Madam,
Reference No: 221/2022
I write in connection with your request for information regarding British
Muslim employees of Dyfed-Powys Police over a specified timeframe.
Your request has been handled under the Freedom of Information Act 2000
and has now been considered.
Section 1 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 places two duties on
public authorities. Unless exemptions apply, the first duty at Section
1(1) (a) is to confirm or deny whether the information specified in a
request is held. The second duty at Section 1(1) (b) is to disclose
information that has been confirmed as being held.
I can confirm that Dyfed-Powys Police does hold the information you have
requested. However we are withholding some of the information since we
consider that the following exemption applies:
Section 40(2) Personal information
Where exemptions are relied upon section 17 of FOIA requires that we
provide the applicant with a notice which:
a) States that fact
b) Specifies the exemption(s) in question and
c) State (if that would not otherwise be apparent) why the exemption
applies
Please see the attached response document which details the
application/explanation of the applied exemptions.
If you are unhappy with the way your request for information has been
handled, you can request a review by writing to the Freedom of Information
unit as detailed in the attached appeal document.
If you remain dissatisfied with the handling of your request or complaint
