Response

As the information you have requested is ‘environmental information’, for the purposes of the Environmental Information (Scotland) Regulations 2004 (EIRs) we are required to deal with your request under those Regulations.

I am releasing copies of raw data available up to the date of your request, with exception of the data redacted under the Regulation 11(2) of the EIRs (personal information). When interrogating the released data, please take into a consideration the fact that this data is not processed or quality-controlled. In addition, not all data released will be used for analysis and reporting and the Scottish Government is not normally in the practice of releasing scientific data in this state.

Due to the size of the files we are unable to upload the documents referred to above.
