Heart of England NHS Foundation Trust

The complainant has requested a copy of compromise agreements entered into with doctors of any grade over the last 10 years. He also requested a list of exploratory issues covered by the compromise agreements (ie. the reasons why the compromise agreements were entered into). The Commissioner’s decision is that the Heart of England NHS Foundation Trust (the ‘Trust’) has correctly applied section 40(2) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the ‘FOIA’) to this request for information. Information Tribunal appeal number EA/2011/0247 dismissed.
