The complainant has requested Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Clinical Commissioning Group (the CCG) to disclose information relating to an IT trainer vacancy; information including the application forms and supporting information of all those shortlisted, the completed interview question, answer sheets and scorecards for those shortlisted, whether the preferred candidate had previous NHS experience or connections with the CCG and whether they started on the opening salary for the grade. The CCG disclosed some information to the complainant, cited section 12 for one element of the request and refused to disclose the remainder under section 40 of the FOIA. During the Commissioner’s investigation the CCG withdrew  it application of section 12 and disclosed the requested information to the complainant. In relation to this element of the request, the Commissioner has recorded a breach of section 1 and 10 of the FOIA, as the CCG failed to disclose information to which the complainant was entitled within 20 working days of receipt. In relation to the application of section 40 of the FOIA, the Commissioner’s decision is that the CCG is entitled to withhold the remaining requested information in under this exemption. The Commissioner does not require the CCG to take any further action.
