The complainant requested information from NHS Merton Clinical Commissioning Group about proposals for Wilson Health and Wellbeing Campus. During the Commissioner’s investigation, NHS Merton Clinical Commissioning Group merged to become part of NHS South West London Clinical Commissioning Group (‘the CCG’), with the latter taking on the functions of the former. The CCG’s position is that it does not hold information falling within the scope of the complainant’s request. The Commissioner’s decision is as follows: On the balance of probabilities, the CCG does not hold the information the complainant has requested. The CCG breached section 10(1) of the FOIA as it did not confirm it does not hold the information within 20 working days of receiving the request. The Commissioner does not require the CCG to take any remedial steps.
