Essex Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust

The complainant made a request for information relating Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) referrals. EPUT confirmed that some information was not held (part 1 of the request) and refused to comply with part of the request under section 12 FOIA as it said that it would exceed the cost limit to do so (part 2 of the request). The Commissioner considers that EPUT does not hold any of the requested information under section 1(1)(a) FOIA as part 2 of the request asks for the same information as part 1 just in a slightly different way. The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken.
