Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS

The complainant made a request for information regarding the employment of a doctor at GOSH. GOSH refused to confirm or deny whether it holds the requested information under section 40(5B)(a)(i) FOIA. The Commissioner considers that GOSH incorrectly applied section 40(5B)(a)(i) FOIA in this case. The Commissioner requires the public authority to confirm or deny whether it holds information within the scope of the request. If GOSH holds information it must either disclose it, or issue a refusal notice that complies with section 17 of the FOIA.

FOI 40: Complaint upheld

Decision notice: 168881
