FOI 22/502
30th March 2022
Dear
Thank you for your email.
We can confirm that the MHRA holds a copy of the requested RMP and ERA.
Information that has been redacted is exempt under Section 40 (Personal Information) or Section 43 (Commercial Interests) of the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act and is therefore withheld.
Section 40 provides that personal information may be exempt from release where to do so would contravene data protection principles. Section 43 provides that information will be exempt from release where to do so would or would be likely to prejudice commercial interests. Furthermore, we do not believe that there is an overriding public interest in disclosing the redacted information in this instance.
If you have a query about the information provided, please reply to this email
If you are dissatisfied with the handling of your request, you have the right to ask for an internal review. Internal review requests should be submitted within two months of the date you receive this response and addressed to: info@mhra.gov.uk
Please remember to quote the reference number above in any future communications.
If you were to remain dissatisfied with the outcome of the internal review, you would have the right to apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a decision. Please bear in mind that the Information Commissioner will not normally review our handling of your request unless you have first contacted us to conduct an internal review. The Information Commissioner can be contacted at:
