Lancashire and South Cumbria NHS Foundation Trust

Through a 10 part request, the complainant has requested information about a review project associated with the work of associate hospital managers. Lancashire and South Cumbria NHS Foundation Trust (‘the Trust’) disclosed relevant information. It originally applied section 36 of FOIA (prejudice to the effective conduct of public affairs) to one part of the request and refused to comply with the remaining part under section 12 (cost exceeds appropriate limit). The Trust subsequently withdrew its reliance on those exemptions. The Commissioner’s decision is as follows: On the balance of probabilities, the Trust has disclosed all the relevant, recorded information it holds that falls within scope of parts 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 of the request and has complied with section 1(1) of FOIA. The Trust communicated some of the requested information outside of the 20 working day requirement and therefore breached section 10(1).The Commissioner does not require the Trust to take any corrective steps.
