- Decision(s) FOI 1: Not upheld, FOI 16: Upheld
The complainant has requested copies of tenders and contracts in respect of the provision of fresh and frozen meat to Wales NHS. The Welsh Government provided some information in respect of tenders but informed the complainant that it did not hold information relating to the contracts. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Welsh Government has complied with its obligations under section 1(1) of the FOIA. However, its failure to provide appropriate advice and assistance means that it has breached section 16. The Commissioner does not require the public authority to take any steps.
