Public Health Wales

The complainant has requested, from Public Health Wales NHS Trust (PHW), information about the vaccination status of Covid-19 hospital inpatients and admissions, for specified dates. PHW told the complainant that it hasn’t created the type of report the complainant wants for the dates in question, so it doesn’t hold the information. PHW has since explained to the Commissioner that whilst it can access the two databases that contain the data required to create the requested information, PHW itself doesn’t actually hold the databases in question. The Commissioner’s decision is that on the balance of probabilities, PHW doesn’t hold the requested information (the report the complainant wants), as it doesn’t hold the ‘building blocks’ (databases) to create it. The Commissioner doesn’t require any steps as a result of this decision.

FOI 1: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 255610
