Dear Requestor,
As requested under the Freedom of Information Act, please find enclosed
the correspondence between MHRA and the following corporate entities:
Pharmassist (Solutions) Limited
PAS Holding Company Limited
Dataplast Limited
Cambrian Alliance Limited
Veratis Group Limited
CamRx Limited
IT Pharm Limited
Epos Logic Solutions Limited
You will see that some information has been redacted. The relevant
sections of the Freedom of Information Act are marked at the side of each
redaction. These are:
• Section 40 – This information contains elements of personal
data, the disclosure of which would be unfair in that it would breach the
first principle of the Data Protection Act which says that information
must be processed fairly and lawfully.
• Section 43 – Release of all, or part of, the information
would, or would be likely to, cause harm to the third party's commercial
interests.
I have considered the balance of the public interest when applying this
exemption. The exemption is to safeguard the commercially sensitive
information / industrial secrets of a third party / commercial enterprise
(which can include a Government Department). This exemption is conditional
on the public interest in releasing it not outweighing the
company's/commercial enterprise's right to confidentiality and the
probable damage that the company/commercial enterprise could suffer as a
result of the information being released. In this case I have not
identified any issues which would benefit the public as a whole by being
brought to their attention (examples of issues would be a major public
health risk or a major procedural failure or irregularity) .
If you have a query about this letter, please do not hesitate to contact
me at [1]IE&[email address]
If you are unhappy with our decision, you may ask for it to be reviewed.
That review will be undertaken by a senior member of the Agency who has
not previously been involved in your request. If you wish to pursue that
option please write to the Communications Directorate, Medicines and
Healthcare products Regulatory Agency, 10 South Colonnade, Canary Wharf,
London, E14 4PU.
After that, if you remain dissatisfied, you may write to the Information
Commissioner at;
The Information Commissioner’s Office
Wycliffe House
Water Lane
Wilmslow
Cheshire
SK9 5AF
They will make a decision on whether or not we have interpreted the FOIA
correctly in handling your request.
Yours sincerely
