NHS Commissioning Board (Decision Notice) [2013] UKICO FS50486542 (07 August 2013)
Summary: The complainant has requested from NHS Norfolk Primary Care Trust (-NHS Norfolk-) copies of Board minutes and consultation response papers in relation to plans to build a waste incinerator near King-s Lynn. It provided her with some information falling within the scope of the request. The Commissioner-s decision is that NHS Norfolk did not respond to the complainant-s request within the statutory timeframe of 20 working days and so it breached section 10(1) of FOIA. At the time of the request and at the time that the complaint was made to the Commissioner, the responsible public authority was NHS Norfolk, a Primary Care Trust. However, from 1 April 2013, NHS Norfolk was disbanded and its functions taken over by the NHS Commissioning Board.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 10 - Complaint Upheld
