Dear Mr Facer,

Thank you for your request of 29 July 2010. I am sorry to inform you
that I am not able to provide the information which you require.

This is because whilst we do hold a copy of the Act you have requested
in our reference library we do not provide a library or copying facility
for the public as the library is for the use of the Justices and staff
of the Supreme Court only. The library's reference information is
exempt from release under Section 21 of the Freedom of Information Act
as it is published information which is available by other means. The
Freedom of Information Act does not provide an alternative means of
access to information which is already freely available, either through
commercial publishing operations or through existing publicly funded
provision.

The reason you cannot find the Act on the current legislation
database(s) is because it has been repealed. You should be able to find
the text of the Act by searching for it on the internet, by approaching
your local library service or the British Library or through
commercially accessible legal databases (for example Justis).

As part of our obligations under the FOIA, we have an independent review
process. If you are dissatisfied with this response you may write to
request an internal review. The internal review will be carried out by
someone who did not make the original decision, and they will re-assess
how your request was handled.

If you wish to request an internal review, please write or send an email
to the Director of Corporate Services within two months of the date of
this reply, at the following address:

Director of Corporate Services
The Supreme Court of the United Kingdom
Parliament Square
London
SW1P 3BD

e mail: [email address]

If you remain dissatisfied after an internal review decision, you have
the right to apply to the Information Commissioner's Office under
Section 50 of the FOIA. You can contact the Information Commissioner's
Office at the following address:

Information Commissioner's Office
