Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and Berkshire West Integrated Care Board

  • Date 14 August 2025
  • Sector Health
  • Decision(s) FOI 14(2): Not upheld

The complainant requested from Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and Berkshire West Integrated Care Board (BOB ICB) information regarding NHS healthcare budget. BOB ICB refused to comply as it considered the request as a repeat and cited section 14(2) (repeat requests) of FOIA. 
The Commissioner’s decision is that BOB ICB was entitled to refuse the request under section 14(2) of FOIA, as it is a repeated request. However, BOB ICB breached section 17(1)(b) of FOIA as its refusal notice did not state the exemption it was relying upon. 
The Commissioner does not require BOB ICB to take any steps as a result of this decision.
