The complainant requested from NHS West Sussex CCG (the CCG) information related to its structure and the relationships among some particular teams within the CCG. The CCG disclosed part of the information held, withheld names of some post holders in organisational charts under section 40(2) (personal information) of FOIA and stated that it did not hold further information within the scope of the request. The Commissioner’s decision is that: on the balance of probabilities, the CCG did not hold any information that would demonstrate the relationship between the NHS WS CCG Medicines Management Team with the West Sussex Continuing Healthcare (CHC) Team; and the CCG has correctly applied section 40(2) to the withheld information. The Commissioner does not require any further steps as a result of this decision notice.
