Department of Health and Social Care

The Commissioner’s decision is that the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) is entitled to refuse the complainant’s requests for information about the COVID Pass letters service under section 12(1) of FOIA. This is because the cost of complying with the requests would exceed the appropriate limit. Although the Commissioner has identified breaches of section 10, 16 and 17 in relation to the two refined requests that were made, he has decided that it is not necessary for DHSC to take any corrective steps.

FOI 17: Complaint upheld FOI 10: Complaint upheld FOI 16: Complaint upheld FOI 12: Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 197652
