The NHS Business Services Authority (NHSBSA) received your request on 26 May 2026.

We have handled your request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA). 

##Our response

I can confirm that the NHSBSA holds some of the information you have requested.

<strong>Question 1 - Are the (government hired) assessors allowed to research vaccine damage reports and published study reports to current date ie like the Japanese vaccine causation report on millions of vaccinated and unvaccinted expert diagnosis and allowed to use this to make decisions based on that and multipal other reports that do in fact link pfizer vaccines to harm.?</strong><br>
and<br>
<strong>Why are your assessors stating that only astra zenica has these blood clotting and other side effects and not pfizer..why..?</strong><br>
and<br>
<strong>Question 2 - Also why does your report repeatedly refer to (THE GREEN BOOK)<br>
Is this tge only evidence source they are allowed to utilise..?</strong>

The NHSBSA does not hold the information you have requested.

All claims are assessed on a case-by-case basis by a medical assessor. All medical assessors are General Medical Council (GMC) registered doctors with a licence to practise and at least five years' experience.

All relevant information is considered to make a complete and fair assessment. The medical assessor thoroughly considers:
<ul>
<li>information given on the claim form</li>
<li>any further evidence submitted by you</li>
<li>any pre-existing conditions that are not caused by the vaccine</li>
<li>medical records (if required)</li>
<li>clinical research</li>
<li>epidemiological evidence</li>
<li>the current consensus of expert medical opinion</li></ul>

The medical assessor will advise if the claimant is entitled to a Vaccine Damage Payment, based on the government’s rules for the scheme. The rules for the scheme can be viewed at <br>
https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1979/17/section/1 

<strong>Question 3 - You state your vaccine damage assessors only require 5 years minimum experience..?
Experience in what exactly.?</strong><br>
and<br>
<strong>Question 4 - why is there zero mention any of these assessors have (ANY EXPERT VACCINE KNOWLEGE AT ALL)</strong><br>
and<br>
<strong>So...you are Allowing a normal Dr...to evaluate complex Mrna based vaccines..?<br>
AT least 5 years experience in what..?<br>
Do they even have ANY Mrna expert experience at all.????<br>
Which what KNOWLEGE..?</strong>

I have established that the NHSBSA does not hold information on qualifications of medical assessors. This is because the medical qualifications and experience of the medical assessors are the responsibility of the third-party medical assessment supplier.

I hope however, that the following information provides reassurance on this point:

Each case is considered on its own merits, by an experienced independent medical assessor.

The contract with our supplier does not require them to tell us details of the qualifications of the medical assessors or their experience. The contract does require that all assessments carried out are undertaken by suitably qualified and experienced registered medical practitioners. This includes being registered on the UK General Medical Council register with a licence to practise and meet or exceed the following requirements:
<ul>
<li>they are a registered medical practitioner with at least five years’ post graduate experience, and</li>
<li>they have experience of the performance of the medical and/or disability assessment, addressing questions of causation and impact in the context of legislative or policy requirements to assist the decision maker</li></ul>

<strong>Question 3 - Are these the same drs that apparently have zero clue these vaccines caused harms..?</strong>

The NHSBSA does not hold the information you have requested.

<strong>Question 5 - IF the X head pfizer vaccines technician that produce the vaccines now states these vaccines are in fact bioweapons why is this being hidden from my case and others..</strong>

The NHSBSA does not hold the information you have requested.
 
<strong>Question 6 - This (GREEN BOOK) STUDY WAS PAYED FOR BY WHO EXACTLY.?</strong>

The NHSBSA does not hold the information you have requested.

<strong>Question 8 - DID THE GOVERNMENT IN FACT PLACE A GAGING ORDER ON DRS NOT TO DISCLOSE VACCINE CONCERNS ON POSSIBLE DAMAGE TO THE PUBLIC.?</strong>

The NHSBSA does not hold the information you have requested.

<strong>Question 9...WHERE IS MY COPY OF THE GREEN BOOK..? SO I CAN SEE FOR MYSELF THE (OFFICIAL RUBBISH) BIAS YOU ARE BEING LIMMITED TO..??<br>
LET ME HAVE A FULL UNREDACTED ISSUE PLEASE...</strong>

I can confirm that the NHSBSA does not hold the information you have requested.

You have asked for a copy of The Green Book (Immunisation Against Infectious Disease) and who is responsible for it. This publication is produced and maintained by the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA), which is the organisation responsible for holding and publishing this information.

The Green Book is publicly available online and can be accessed via the GOV.UK website at the following link:

If you require any further information or have difficulty accessing the document, you may wish to contact UKHSA directly.

<strong>Questions - The full transparency of WHO is acting as judge and jury and WHO has set the ridiculous 60% figure and why...?<br>
I want names....!<br>
Those names can and should be released at once..<br>
I can and will be asking for all involved in this as I have previously asked via freedom of Information requests..</strong>

I can confirm that this information is held by the NHSBSA as it is included in the medical report received from the medical assessment supplier. All medical assessors are UK based. The name and location of the medical assessor is redacted before this report is disclosed to the claimant or their representative.

Given this will allow the medical assessor to be identified, this information would not be disclosed under the exemption in section 40 subsections 2 and 3A (a) of FOIA.

The expectation of the medical assessors is that they will remain anonymous and will therefore not be subject to contact or pressure from claimants or campaigning groups. 

Given the likelihood their name and location will identify the medical assessor there is a reasonable expectation that this information will not be disclosed under FOIA.

Disclosing this information would be unfair and as such this would breach the UK GDPR first data protection principle. With regards to the Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme (VDPS) there have been concerns for the health and safety of medical assessors and staff administering the scheme.

Disclosure of the name and location is likely to result in considerable distress to the medical assessor. Therefore, this information falls under the exemption in section 40 subsections 2 and 3A (a) of FOIA. This is because it would breach the first data protection principle as:

a.	it is not fair to disclose medical assessors’ personal details to the world and is likely to cause damage or distress.   <br>

b.	these details are not of sufficient interest to the public to warrant an intrusion into the privacy of the medical assessor.

Please click the below web link to see the exemption in full. 
https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2000/36/section/40

With regards to the 60% disablement criteria. We administrate the VDPS on behalf of the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC). DHSC is responsible for the scheme’s rules, including the eligibility criteria for payment.
