Summary: The complainant asked Calderdale Primary Care Trust (the -˜PCT-™) for information concerning the number of transsexuals in a specific area who had been referred to, and assessed by, a particular doctor for sex change surgery. The PCT answered the four questions by informing the complainant that in each case the answer was equal to or less than five. The PCT has refused to disclose the exact numbers involved as it considers that this would enable the identification of individual(s). It has therefore applied section 40(2) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the -˜Act-™) to the detailed information. The Commissioner is satisfied that the PCT was correct to apply section 40(2) to this information and finds no breaches of the Act.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 40 - Complaint Not upheld
