Gateshead Health NHS Foundation Trust

The complainant has requested information on complaints about a named surgeon. Gateshead Health NHS Foundation Trust (‘the Trust’) withheld the information under section 40(2) of FOIA as it considers it to be someone else’s personal information. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Trust correctly applied section 40(2) of FOIA to the requested information. It’s not necessary for the Trust to take any corrective steps.
