Northern Devon Healthcare NHS Trust
In a multi-part request, the complainant has requested information associated with Northern Devon Healthcare NHS Trust’s mobile device policy and procedures. Northern Devon Healthcare NHS Trust (‘the Trust’) released some information and advised that other information was in the course of being reviewed. The Trust refused to comply with five parts of the request under section 12(1) of the FOIA (cost exceeds the appropriate limit). The complainant is dissatisfied with the Trust’s reliance on section 12(1). The Commissioner’s decision is as follows: The Trust is entitled to rely on section 12(1) to refuse to comply with five parts of the complainant’s request. The Trust breached section 16(1) of the FOIA as it did not consider whether it would be possible for the complainant to refine his request to bring it within the cost limit, at the time of the request. The Commissioner does not require the Trust to take any remedial steps. Information Tribunal appeal EA/2019/0180 under appeal.
