Summary: The complainant requested a report held by the council on a review which was carried out on a care home in Islington. The complainant's aunt moved to the home but was admitted to hospital within a few days with a number of severe medical conditions which ultimately led to her death. The report is on a review of the care provided to her aunt at the home. The review sought to establish whether and how mistakes in the care she received at the home led to the swift deterioration of her health to the point where she was admitted to hospital. The council refused to provide the complainant with the information she requested, citing the exemptions in section 41 and section 40 of the Act. The Commissioner's decision is that the council was correct to apply section 41 to all of the information. He has not therefore gone on to consider the application of section 40 to the information. The Commissioner has also decided that the council breached section 17(1).
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 17 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 41 - Complaint Not upheld
