NHS trust reports rise in complex AI-generated information requests

Summarised from 3 outlets · Updated 3 Oct, 06:02 · Archive

North Cumbria NHS trust says it is receiving increasingly complex Freedom of Information requests generated by AI.

North Cumbria Integrated Care (NCIC) has reported that it is facing an increasing workload from Freedom of Information requests that have been generated using AI. The trust says these requests are becoming more complex to handle.

The trust answered 89.62 per cent of FOI requests within the standard 20-day response deadline during 2025/26. This suggests the volume and complexity of AI-generated queries may be affecting its ability to meet the target in all cases, though the majority of requests continue to be answered on time.
