Camden and Islington Foundation NHS (Decision Notice) [2011] UKICO FS50288655 (22 February 2011)
Summary: The complainant contacted the public authority and requested copies of the signed Directors-™ Codes of Conduct since November 2007 and related information such as emails, letters and reports. The public authority provided the current post holders-™ Codes of Conduct but stated that previous post holders-™ Codes of Conduct could not be located. It did not deal with the second part of the request for the related information. The Commissioner is satisfied that the public authority has provided copies of the current Codes of Conduct. He considers that, on the balance of probabilities after nine searches for the information, it is likely that the previous post holders-™ Codes of Conduct are not held by the public authority. With regard to the request for the related information, the Commissioner requires the public authority to either disclose or withhold the information by virtue of a valid refusal notice under section 17 to comply with the Act. The public authority also breached its procedural obligations under the Act.
