Decision Summary

  • Case Ref: FS50180689
  • Date: 10 September 2008
  • Public Authority: Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency
  • Summary: The complainant made 5 requests between April 2007 and June 2007 under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the “Act”) to the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) for information relating to the anti-depressant drug Seroxat. The MHRA deemed these requests vexatious in accordance with section 14(1) of the Act. The Commissioner considered these requests in the context and background in which they were made and has decided that the MHRA applied the Act correctly in refusing to comply with the requests under section 14(1) of the Act. The Commissioner has however found that the Trust breached section 17(5) of the Act as it did not state its reliance upon section 14(1) in relation to the requests labelled FOI 07/140 and FOI 07/142 within 20 working days of those requests being made.
