It also provided a response under FOIA, relying on section 30, section 31 and section 40 of FOIA which concern investigations, law enforcement and personal data respectively. HCPC has subsequently confirmed that it is relying on section 40(5B) of FOIA to neither confirm nor deny it holds the requested information. The Commissioner’s decision is as follows: HCPC is entitled under section 40(5B)(a)(i) of FOIA to neither confirm nor deny it holds the requested information as to do so would disclose the personal data of a third person.
