Southern Health and Social Care Trust

The complainant has made a 12 part request for information relating to the costs attributable to a disciplinary investigation involving a relative of the complainant. In response, Southern Health and Social Care Trust (the Trust) stated that it had previously provided information relating to a member of staff who had been employed to carry out the investigation. It refused to provide information relating to a payment made to a barrister because it considered the information to be the barrister’s personal data. The Trust stated that it did not hold any other information falling within the scope of the request. The Commissioner’s decision is that, on the balance of probabilities, the Trust has provided all the information it is required to within the scope of the request, and has complied with its obligations under section 1(1) of the FOIA. The Commissioner has also decided that the Trust has correctly withheld the information relating to the payment made to a barrister under section 40(2) of the FOIA. The Commissioner does not require any further steps to be taken as a result of this decision notice.
