General Medical Council

The complainant has requested correspondence from and to the General Medical Council (GMC) relating to the regulation of several groups pf medical professionals. The GMC refused to provide the requested information as to do so would exceed the appropriate limit at section 12(1) FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the GMC was correct in its reliance on section 12(1) to refuse the request. The Commissioner also finds that the GMC did not comply with its section 16(1) obligation to offer advice and assistance but it has now provided advice on how to narrow the request and no further steps are therefore required.

FOI 12: Complaint not upheld FOI 16: Complaint upheld
