The complainant made a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the ‘Act’) to the Commission for Social Care Inspection (the ‘CSCI’) for a copy of a care report for the Cottage Christian Nursing Home (the ‘CCNH’) dated 17 July 2002. The Commissioner’s decision is that the CSCI breached section 1(1)(a) of the Act in failing to deny that it holds a report of the date specified by the complainant in his request. The Commissioner is satisfied that the CSCI does not hold the information requested and therefore that it does not have an obligation to provide it to the complainant under section 1(1)(b) of the Act. The Commissioner has also found that the CSCI did not comply with the requirements of section 10 of the Act, in that it did not respond to the complainant’s request within twenty working days.
