NHS West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board

The complainant requested information about applications to the Court of Protection. NHS West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board (‘the ICB’) provided a response to some of the request but refused to comply with the remainder citing section 12 of FOIA (cost limit). The Commissioner’s decision is that the ICB was entitled to refuse to comply with the remainder of the request in accordance with section 12(1) of FOIA. The Commissioner also finds that the ICB complied with its obligations under section 16 to offer advice and assistance. The Commissioner does not require the ICB to take any steps.
