Image and Performance Enhancing Drugs (IPEDS) and steroids: FOI release
Information request and response under the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002.
Information requested
When searched in date order, what are the twenty most recent results with corporate value set when you perform an eRDM search for the following terms: "IPEDs" "Steroids" "Image and Performance enhancing Drugs"?
Could you send any briefings or policy papers sent by the drugs policy division to Scottish Ministers on the subject of Steroids or other IPEDs since the most recent Scottish Parliament election.
Could you please send any minutes from meetings the Minister for Drugs and Alcohol Policy has held with external organisations where steroids or other IPEDs were discussed since the last Scottish Parliament election.
Response
An exemption under section s.38(1)(b) of FOISA applies to some of the information you have requested. This is as the information includes the names of individuals.
I have combined the results of all the searches (IPEDs, Steroids, Image and Performance enhancing Drugs) into a single document entitled 'Steroids and IPEDs - Search Results'.
There is one document which calls under question two asking for briefings or policy papers. This is attached as 'BIC Ministerial Meeting - BRIEFING'.
There are no documents related to question three.
