Cambridgeshire and Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust

The complainant has requested correspondence to and from the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust (“the CPFT”) relating to the Spectrum 10K research project. The CPFT originally refused the request on the grounds of cost (under section 12), but later clarified that it was instead refusing the request on the grounds that compliance would impose a grossly oppressive burden (under section 14(1) of FOIA). The Commissioner’s decision is that: The request is vexatious and therefore the CPFT was entitled to rely upon section 14(1) to refuse it.

FOI 14(1): Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 149073
