London Ambulance Service NHS Trust

The complainant has requested information from the London Ambulance Service NHS Trust (the Trust) for information relating to 999 and 111 calls. The Trust deemed the request vexatious under section 14(1) of FOIA. It also refused to provide a response to the complainant, relying on section 17(6) as the basis for doing so. The Commissioner’s decision is that the request was vexatious under section 14(1), and that the Trust was entitled to rely on section 17(6) of FOIA to refuse to issue a refusal notice in response to the request. The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken as a result of this decision.
