  • Decision(s) FOI 40: Not upheld
On 27 August 2009 the complainant submitted a Freedom of Information request to the General Medical Council (the ‘GMC’) for the name of the GMC official who allocated a named panellist to a specific GMC Fitness to Practise Panel. The GMC refused the request under section 40(2) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000. The Commissioner upheld the exemption and does not require the GMC to take any steps in relation to this request. This decision notice is currently under appeal to the Information Tribunal.
