Sheffield City Council
The complainant has requested from Sheffield City Council (SCC) information, in general terms, about the medical qualifications of staff working in its Adult Social Care Commissioning Team (ASCCT). SCC refused to comply with the request on the grounds that it engaged sections 14(1) (Vexatious requests) and 14(2) (Repeated requests) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that SCC was not entitled to rely on sections 14(1) or 14(2) of the FOIA to refuse the request. The Commissioner requires SCC to issue a fresh response to the request that does not rely on sections 14(1) or 14(2) of the FOIA.FOI 14: Complaint upheld
