The Health and Care Professions Council (Council) refused a request for information regarding a registered practitioner's home address under Section 40(2) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000. The Commissioner upheld the Council's decision, stating that disclosing the information would contravene the Data Protection principles and cause unjustified harm to the individual involved. The main purpose of this decision is to protect an individual's personal data from being disclosed under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. This impact on the industry is a reminder that data protection principles take precedence over legitimate interests in disclosure, especially when considering the potential harm or distress caused to individuals whose information is requested.
