This is a request for information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, relating to the use of non-disclosure agreements. I define non-disclosure agreements as a contract through which the parties agree not to disclose information covered by the agreement. Please note, there are four parts to my request.
1. Between financial years 2017/18 and 2021/2022 has the Trust issued a non-disclosure agreement to resolve a sexual harassment case?
2. If so, how many non-disclosure agreements were used between financial years 2017/18 and 2021/2022 by the Trust to resolve sexual harassment cases?
3. If possible, please state how many of these non-disclosure agreements were agreed where a patient was one of the parties.
4. If possible, please state how many of these non-disclosure agreements were agreed where a member of staff (both former or current) was one of the parties.
