Response

I enclose a copy of some of the information you requested. While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance the Scottish Government does not have some of the information you have requested.

This is a formal notice under section 17(1) of FOISA that the Scottish Government does not have some of the information you have requested.

However, we do hold some of the information requested. While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance we are unable to provide some of the information you have requested because exemptions under Section 30(b)(i) – Free and Frank Provision of Advice, Section 30(b)(ii) – Free and Frank Exchange of Views, Section 33(1)(b) – Prejudice to Commercial Interests,

Section 38(1)(b) – Third Party Personal Information of FOISA applies to that information. The reasons why the exemptions apply are explained in the Annex to this letter.
