- Decision(s) FOI 40(2): Not upheld, FOI 41: Not upheld
The complainant requested information in respect of employees accused of or arrested for sex related offences. South East Coast Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust (the Trust) provided some information in scope of the request but refused the bulk of the request citing section 40(2) (personal information).
The Commissioner’s decision is that the Trust was entitled to refuse the information on the basis of section 40(2) of FOIA. He also finds that section 41 of FOIA is engaged, this is because it’s information that was provided in confidence, and the public interest favours maintaining the exemption in this case.
No steps are required as a result of this decision.
