East Kent Hospitals University NHS Foundation Trust
The complainant has requested information, including legal advice sought and received by East Kent Hospitals University NHS Foundation Trust (“the Trust”) in relation to allegations made against the complainant. The Trust confirmed all information had previously been provided with the exception of legal advice which was being withheld under section 42(1) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the information withheld by the Trust is subject to legal professional privilege and engages the section 42(1) exemption. The Commissioner finds that the public interest favours maintaining the exemption and withholding the information.
FOI 42:
Complaint not upheld
