This request was sent earlier today in view of the unprecedented selective leaking yesterday to Sky News and other Britiish media of a highly confidential scoping report prepared by Jim Gamble for the Home Office in 2010 in the Madeleine McCann case.

The leak appeared to be being used to put a 'spin' on the failure over 7 years of the British police forces to make any progress in the investigation of Madeleine's disappearance, despite enormous resources, and to promote a forthcoming book on the case by Anthony Summers and Robbyn Swan:


+++++++++++++++++++++++++


NEW REQUEST 2 SEP 2014 - SUMMARY:  This request is about factual matters relating to a report prepared by Jim Gamble, former boss of CEOP, about the Madeleine McCann case

Dear Home Office,
 
re: Freedom of Information - A Scoping Report in 2010 by Jim Gamble about the Madeleine McCann case
 
During 2009 and 2010, there were numerous reports in the British print and TV media about the preparation of a scoping report in connection with a possible review of the Madeleine McCann case. Alan Johnson was the Home Secretary at the time. Some newspapers made reference to the Metropolitan and West Yorkshire police forces having been asked to carry out this scoping exercise, but eventually it was announced that Jim Gamble, former boss of CEOP, was doing it. It is now known that this scoping exercise was used by the Home Office when, after the intervention of News International's then Chief Executive Officer, Ms Rebekah Brooks, the Home Office in conjunction with the then Metropolitan Police Commissioner, Sir Paul Stephenson, decided to set up Operation Grange, the investigative review into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann. This report was not made public and was described in the British press as 'top secret'.
 
Despite that, on Sky News yesterday (1 Sep 2014) and in several British newspapers within the past 24 hours, it was stated that a persons or persons unknown had 'briefed' Sky News and the press with partial disclosures from this 'top secret' report.
 
Arising out of the above facts, and notwithstanding that there continues to be an investigation into the facts surrounding Madeleine's disappearance, please answer the following questions:
 
1. What other persons or organisations or agencies were asked if they could carry out this scoping exercise, before Jim Gamble was approached?
 
2. On what date was Jim Gamble approached to carry out this exercise? 
 
3. On what date did Jim Gamble complete his report and/or submit it to the Home Secretary?

4. Was any payment made to either CEOP or to Jim Gamble personally for carrying out this report; if so, what was the fee?
 
5. Is the report marked or treated as confidential?
 
6. If the report is confidential, has the Home Office authorised partial release of its contents to the media?
 
7. If it has so authorised such release, (a) who authorised the release of this information and (b) on what date was it authorised?
 
8. If any release of its contents has not been authorised by the Home Office, (a) has the Home Office begun an enquiry into who leaked this information and (b), if so, on what date did the leak enquiry begin?
 
9. Specifically, did the Home Office authorise Jim Gamble to disclose some of his report's contents to the media; if so, who authorised this disclosure and on what date was such authority given?
 
If the 'public interest' test is deemed to apply to any of the above questions, the issue of whether and under what circumstances persons are at liberty to release selected details of  a  confidential document within an investigation to the media is, it is submitted, manifestly a matter of the public interest.
    
Yours faithfully,

Anthony Bennett

Tony I am not legally qualified (although I am currently considering law training) so can I just ask some basic questions...

If you send a FOI and whoever gets it, basically does not like you (no offence, but I do not think the establishment is too keen on you, because you want the truth in this case) can they not just ignore it? Think "oh no, its that Anthony Bennett guy, the one who harasses the poor innocent McCanns? I will file that right in the bin"

Do they have to answer you and do they have any powers in being selective in what information they do release?

REPLY: There are provisions to enable authorities to refuse FoI requests e.g. if the request is considered 'frivolous' or 'vexatious', or if a person makes very frequent requests. No, a request cannot be refused if they 'don't like you'. In any case, in all of these cases,  there is the right of appeal to the Information Commissioner, who many times orders reluctant authorities to supply answers where answers have been refused initially. 

Think "Oh no, it's that Anthony Bennett guy, the one who harasses the poor innocent McCanns? I will file that right in the bin"

REPLY: The answers, or refusals to answer, are usually delivered by an authority's FoI officer(s), who in theory are supposed to be neutral, and to be fair will usually advise their colleagues when information may or may not be disclosed.  

Do they have to answer you and do they have any powers in being selective in what information they do release?

REPLY: There are many good reasons for refusing to answer FoI questions, and quite a few of them are given in the other three threads I raised today - and of course they will also be found in the Freedom of Information Act 200 itself

I have since had this automated response, as I use the WhatDoTheyKnow website:

I have today received a response from the Home Office refusing my request in its entirety.

The reason given is Section 23 of the FoI Act and I've highlighted this and other relevant parts of the Home Office's reply.

On this occasion I have decided to exercise my right to a review and my letter today to the Home Office FoI Act Section askiong for a review is below.

To all reading this post, may I once again emphasise the truly extraordinary way that this one man - Jim Gamble - is and has been joined at the hip with the McCann Team, and has been since Week One when he asked holidaymakers who had been in Praia da Luz to send him their holiday photos. There is much more about this on this forum if you use the search facility under 'Gamble'.

Herewith:

a) the Home Office refusal letter and

b) my request for a review:

HOME OFFICE REFUSAL LETTER

Mr A Bennett

request-227967-6e6056c0@whatdotheyknow.com

14 October 2014

 

Dear Mr Bennett, 

Freedom of Information request reference: 32799 

Thank you for your e-mail of 2 September concerning a Freedom of Information request related to a scoping report of 2010 by Jim Gamble, former head of the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre (CEOP) about the Madeleine McCann case. Your request has been handled as a request for information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. 

You asked for the following information: 

1. What other persons or organisations or agencies were asked if they could carry out this scoping exercise, before Jim Gamble was approached? 

2. On what date was Jim Gamble approached to carry out this exercise? 

3. On what date did Jim Gamble complete his report and/or submit it to the Home Secretary? 

4. Was any payment made to either CEOP or to Jim Gamble personally for carrying out this report; if so, what was the fee? 

5. Is the report marked or treated as confidential? 

6. If the report is confidential, has the Home Office authorised partial release of its contents to the media? 

7. If it has so authorised such release, (a) who authorised the release of this information and (b) on what date was it authorised?

In relation to your questions above, we are able to confirm that whilst a report is held by the Home Office, it is exempt from disclosure under Section 23 (1) of the Act. This states that information held by a public authority is exempt from disclosure if it was directly or indirectly supplied, or relates to, any of the bodies specified in Section 23(3).

REPLY FROM TONY BENNETT
 

Dear Home Office,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Home Office's handling of my FOI request 'This request is about factual matters relating to a report prepared by Jim Gamble, former boss of CEOP, about the Madeleine McCann case'.

The Madeleine McCann case is of exceptional national and even international interest. Concern is expressed by many about the response of various government agencies and British police forces to the reported disappearance of Madeleine McCann.

Referring to my request for information, every single question I asked relates to matters already fully in the public domain.

Moreover, there has unquestionably been a 'leak' to the media of part of the contents of Mr Gamble's report. The question of how and for what purpose this leak occurred is manifestly a matter of public interest. You have conceded that this is a highly confidential report - and it follows therefore that its partial disclosure, presumably with the consent of the Home Secretary, is a matter of public concern. 

I have carefully considered Section 23(1) and as a result withdraw my request for some of the information.

However, in the light of my comments above, I consider it reasonable for the Home Office to disclose information clearly held by the Home Office in answer to the following questions:        

2. On what date was Jim Gamble first approached to carry out this [scoping]  exercise?

3. On what date did Jim Gamble complete his report and/or submit it to the Home Secretary?

6. If the report is confidential, has the Home Office authorised partial release of its contents to the media?

7. If it has so authorised such release, (a) who authorised the release of this information and (b) on what date was it authorised?

8. If any release of its contents has not been authorised by the Home Office, (a) has the Home Office begun an enquiry into who leaked this information and (b), if so, on what date did the leak enquiry begin?

9. Specifically, did the Home Office authorise Jim Gamble to disclose some of his report's contents to the media; if so, who authorised this disclosure and on what date was such authority given?

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/this_request_is_about_factual_ma

Yours faithfully,

Anthony Bennett

Well that’s a surprise! Even with a straight refusal they still can’t keep within the regulatory time frame.
 
Just a thought.
 
Probably too late in the day as your appeal has already gone off, but surely as the scoping report was carried out a couple of years before CEOP was swallowed up by the NCA, I cannot see that they should get away with the Section 23 exemption, although no doubt they could just come up with another excuse.
 
I may be wrong but can’t see CEOP sitting in any of the other categories listed in 2010.
 
Keep watching for a response to Mike Staples request for the cost of Redwoods summer holiday and search/dig.
 
https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/please_can_you_provide_the_follo#incoming-528891
 
This request was made on 12th June 2014 and has been regularly deferred, with a current ‘response due’ date of 31st October 2014.
 
They turned down your ‘helicopter’ visit request, so why they haven’t kicked this one into touch yet remains to be seen.

Thank you very much - and that point had certainly not occurred to me.

However, I think I shall not pursue it because, since as you say CEOP was 'swallowed up' by the National Crime Agency, and the report is therefore mow held by them, they would no doubt contend that it has now become secret (by virtue of the takeover), even if CEOP wasn't exempted under Section 23 before.

Moreover, I think you'll find that CEOP was actually exempted from the whole of the FoI Act 2000 (like ACPO).

A new Freedom of Information Act request to the Home Office about the selective leaking to the media of a confidential report byJim Gamble, former head of CEOP Empty Jim Gamble: 'Paedophiles don't need to be locked up'

Post by Tony Bennett 14.10.14 20:37

While we're collecting quotes from Jim Gamble, what about this infamous one (in red), strangely enough made less than 4 weeks after Madeleine McCann was reported misisng:

+++++++++++++++++++++++

The man leading Britain's battle against online paedophiles was yesterday accused of being soft on child pornography.
 
Jim Gamble, a former senior police officer, infuriated children's charities by suggesting some internet offenders should not go to jail.

Mr Gamble is chief executive of the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre or CEOP, a body set up last year to make the web safer for children.
CEOP has helped catch offenders who prey on children online, trawling chatrooms and websites for youngsters to groom.
 
But Mr Gamble does not think jail is necessarily the best place for those paedophiles who have still to live out their deviant fantasies offline.
 
Yesterday he said: "We shouldn't be sending everyone that ever commits an offence - particularly of the viewing kind - to prison.
 
"If someone is at the beginning of the spiral of abuse, where there is evidence to indicate during the investigation that this person may well benefit from a police caution and be managed, then of course that needs to be done."
 
Michele Elliott, director of children's charity Kidscape, said: "To treat [paedophiles] in the community sends a message that what they have done is not very serious.
 
"I believe that if you download child pornography, you are just as guilty as the people who are taking the photographs. You create a market, because you want to view child pornography, therefore a child is abused for your pleasure. As far as I am concerned, that means prison. Obviously, that means different length prison sentences for different crimes, but as far as I'm concerned, there's a child victim out there, and justice demands that you go to prison for having been involved in the abuse of a child."
 
She added: "Offenders, while locked up, should receive mandatory treatment, but they should not be left in the community. Jim Gamble is effectively saying we've caught people doing something that's abhorrent, but we've got too many to deal with', but that's crazy."

So there's a school's team Jim - but not everyone who watches child porn should necessarily go to prison?

Get a grip.
