Cambridgeshire and Peterborough CCG
26 July 2016, Health (NHS)
The complainant has requested on behalf of his mother information relating his mother’s healthcare via a valid power of attorney. The Commissioner’s decision is that Cambridgeshire and Peterborough CCG (the CCG) incorrectly applied section 40(2) of the FOIA to the requested information. However, the Commissioner finds that the information is exempt from disclosure by virtue of section 40(1) of the FOIA. This is because essentially the information being requested in the context of a power of attorney was the personal data of the applicant. The Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any steps as a result of this decision notice.
FOI 40: Partly upheld
