Dear Ms Neish,

Thank you for your information request of 26 April 2010, made under the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 (FOISA). Aberdeen City Council (ACC) has completed the necessary search for the information requested.

Please see attached letter, S38 Exemption Notice and Site History Reports.

We are unable to provide you with personal details in the complaints log as it is exempt from disclosure. In order to comply with its obligations under the terms of section 16 of the FOISA the Council must issue official refusal notices in relation to any requests for which it is claiming an exemption under the FOISA. I therefore attach a refusal notice which specifically refuses your request under the terms of Section INSERT SECTION of the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002.

We trust this satisfies your enquiry.

Yours sincerely,

Jean Reid
FOI Compliance Assistant
