The complainant has requested information about [1] an employment tribunal case, [2] the number of such cases submitted to Cardiff Employment Tribunal, [3] the number of staff dismissed, [4] public interest disclosures and [5] the number of staff offered ‘Compromise Agreements’. Cardiff and Vale University Health Board (‘UHB’) released information within the scope of request [3]. It said it did not hold the information requested at [1], [2] and [4] and is not obliged to comply with [5] as to do so would exceed the appropriate limit under section 12(1) of the FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that UHB has not complied with section 1(1) of the FOIA in respect of requests [1], [2] and [4]. The Commissioner has also decided that UHB has correctly applied section 12(1) to request [5] and that it was reasonable not to offer the complainant advice and assistance with regard to this request. The Commissioner requires the public authority to take the following steps to ensure compliance with the legislation: Reconsider requests [1], [2] and [4] and issue fresh responses that comply with the FOIA.
