Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman
The complainant has requested, from the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman (PHSO), information about “the legal status of non-CCT [Customer Care Team] reviews and the re-opening of final decisions”. PHSO disclosed some information but withheld certain legal advice, citing section 42 of FOIA (legal professional privilege) as its basis for doing so. The Commissioner’s decision is that PHSO was correct to refuse to disclose the legal advice in question on the basis of section 42 of FOIA. The Commissioner doesn’t require further steps.FOI 42: Complaint not upheld
Decision notice: 275084
