Norfolk and Norwich Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust

The complainant requested information relating to the Norwich Anaesthetic Group. The Commissioner’s decision is that Norfolk & Norwich University NHS Trust (“the Trust”) failed to respond to the request within 20 working days and has therefore breached section 10 of the FOIA. The Commissioner requires the Trust to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation. Issue a substantive response, under the FOIA, to the request. The Trust must take these steps within 35 calendar days of the date of this decision notice. Failure to comply may result in the Commissioner making written certification of this fact to the High Court pursuant to section 54 of the FOIA and may be dealt with as a contempt of court.
