Department of Health and Social Care

The complainant has requested the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) disclose the internal assessments/reviews on the Covid pandemic. The DHSC refused to disclose the requested information citing section 35(1)(a) of FOIA. During the Commissioner’s investigation the DHSC confirmed that it was now willing to disclose the requested information to the complainant. But despite various communications the Commissioner was unable to get the DHSC to confirm when this would be done. The Commissioner requires the DHSC to disclose the requested information to the complainant within the statutory timeframe outlined in his notice.

FOI 35(1)(a): Complaint upheld

Decision notice: 145190
