Department of Health and Social Care

The complainant has requested the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) to disclose the ‘internal ways-of-working review’ mentioned by Lord Bethell in Parliament. DHSC refused to disclose the requested information citing section 35(1)(a) of FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that while section 35(1)(a) of FOIA is engaged, the public interest in favour of maintaining the exemption is outweighed by the public interest in favour of disclosure.

FOI 35(1)(a): Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: 228228
