Decision

I have today decided to disclose some of the requested information. Some data has been withheld as it is exempt from disclosure and therefore this response serves as a Refusal Notice under Section 17 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the Act) by virtue of the following exemptions:

Section 8(1) – unable to ascertain what information you are seeking

Reason for decision

In relation to ‘To answer the below, we have recently sold 1500 radio and BWV chargers to Cambridgeshire Constabulary. If you are using them too you may be interested in buying some for the Met Police either now or in future’, you do not appear to be requesting recorded information.

A request under the Act is required by clearly describe the information that is being requested. As I am unable to ascertain what information you are seeking within the second part of your request, I have decided that the requirement outlined by Section 8(1)(c) has not been met. This is because you do not appear to be requesting recording information.
