Cabinet Secretary for Justice and Home Affairs August meetings: FOI release

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


Information requested

  • Could you provide me a list of all meetings Angela Constance has held in the last month, and all minutes/notes from these meetings?
  • Could you tell me what is the current plan for the "series of speeches to be delivered this year that will expand on the economic case for independence." -https://www.gov.scot/publications/scottishindependence-industrial-policy/
  • Could you supply all documentation held about these speeches, including correspondence (internal as well), minutes/notes from meetings, policy notes and analysis and briefings, from between May 1 and the date of this FOI?

Given the wide range of this request and that the topics mentioned cut across a range of policy areas within Scottish Government, we have split up your request. This response is an answer to question one above, and you will receive a separate response on your other two questions.

Response

I enclose a copy of most of the information you requested in the attached document called 'Supporting Document'.

Some of the information you have requested is available from Scottish Government website: https://www.gov.scot/collections/police-minutes-of-regular-meetings/.

Under section 25(1) of FOISA, we do not have to give you information which is already reasonably accessible to you. If, however, you do not have internet access to obtain this information from the website listed, then please contact me again and I will send you a paper copy.
