Correspondence between Scottish Government and LGB Alliance Feb-March 2022: FOI release

Information request and response under the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002.


Information requested

Any correspondence between the Scottish Government and LGB Alliance between 1st February 2022 and 17th March 2022. In particular, any communication on the reforms to the Gender Recognition Act.

Response

I enclose a copy of all of the information you requested, attached as Document 1.

An exemption under section 38(1)(b) of FOISA applies to some of the information you have requested, because it is personal data of a third party, in that it consists of personal information that may identify an individual and disclosing it would contravene the data protection principles in Article 5(1) of the General Data Protection Regulation and in section 34(1) of the Data Protection Act 2018. This exemption is not subject to the ‘public interest test’, so we are not required to consider if the public interest in disclosing the information outweighs the public interest in applying the exemption.
