The complainant has requested a full list of care homes and nursing homes in Herefordshire and Worcestershire County who reported suspected or confirmed cases of coronavirus (COVID-19) to the CQC between 1st January 2020 to 10th June 2020, the exact date the CQC became aware of coronavirus and its appearance in the UK and the date of the first reported incident of coronavirus reported to the CQC by the Herefordshire and Worcestershire county. The CQC refused to comply with the request under section 12 FOIA as it would exceed the cost limit to do so and in the alternative, in relation to parts 1 and 2 of the request, it applied the exemptions contained at sections 31(1)(g), 36(2), 38(1) and 43(2) FOIA. The Commissioner considers that the CQC correctly refused to comply with the request under section 12 FOIA. The Commissioner requires no steps to be taken.
