The complainant has requested copies of papers on an investigation by Monitor into the performance of King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust. The Trust identified several documents containing information within the scope of the request and considered the information to be exempt on the basis of sections 31, 33, 41, 21, 36 and 40 of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Trust has correctly applied section 31(1)(g) with 31(2)(c) to the withheld information and the balance of the public interest favours maintaining the exemption. He requires no steps to be taken.
FOI 31: Not upheld
