North Cumbria Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust

Through an eight part request to North Cumbria Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust (NCIC), the complainant has requested information on various types of complaints and concerns that may have been raised about NCIC and its consultants, and information about one of NCIC’s contracts. NCIC addressed the parts of the complainant’s request: releasing information it holds, confirming where it does not hold relevant information and directing him to its website where other information is published. The complainant considers that NCIC holds further relevant information. The Commissioner’s decision is as follows: On the balance of probabilities, NCIC does not hold recorded information relevant to parts 4, 5, 7 and 8 of the request and has released all the information it holds that is relevant to part 3. As such, NCIC has complied with section 1(1) of the FOIA in relation to those parts. The information the complainant has requested in parts 1, 2 and 6 is exempt information under section 21(1) of the FOIA as it is accessible to him by other means. In relation to the section 21 exemption, NCIC breached section 17(1) of the FOIA as its refusal notice was inadequate. The Commissioner does not require NCIC to take any remedial steps.
