The complainant made a request for information concerning medical tribunal decisions in relation to two named doctors heard in 2018. The GMC refused to confirm or deny whether the requested information was held under section 40(5B)(a)(i) FOIA. The Commissioner considers that the GMC was correct to apply section 40(5B)(a)(i) FOIA in this case. The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken.  First-tier Tribunal (General Regulatory Chamber) Information Rights appeal EA/2022/0347 appeal dismissed.
