Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency
The complainant requested from the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency, (‘the MHRA’), information relating to decisions and statements made about COVID 19 vaccines. The MHRA initially sought to respond to the complainant's request by providing links to information already published within the public domain. The complainant, however, argued that the MHRA did not disclose the data and evidence which supports the statements which they highlighted in their request. During the course of the Commissioner's investigation, the MHRA changed its position to apply section 14(1) to refuse to respond to the request further. The Commissioner’s decision is that the MHRA was correct to apply section 14(1) to refuse to respond to the request. The Commissioner does not require the MHRA to take any steps.FOI 14: Complaint not upheld
