Summary: The complainant made a request to the Department of Health (the -DoH-) for correspondence between it and HM Treasury regarding the DoH-s -near cash overspend- in 2005-6. Specifically the complainant requested information from January to July 2006. The DoH refused to disclose this information under sections 35(1)(a) and (b). During the investigation of the case the DoH informed the Commissioner that it was also relying upon section 31(1)(c) to withhold some of the information. After investigating the case the Commissioner concluded that the majority of the information should be withheld under sections 35(1)(a) and (b). However, he also decided that some information previously withheld under section 35(1)(a) should be disclosed. He also found that the DoH had not met with the requirements of sections 10(1) and 17(1). Information Tribunal appeal EA/2010/0067 withdrawn.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 10 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 17 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 35 - Complaint Partly Upheld
