The response to my FOI request is unsatisfactory and I am requesting an internal review.

Yours faithfully,

Dear Mr Paterson

 

Thank you for your request dated 23 February for a review of our response
under the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 (FOISA) requesting a
copy of the FOI case log for FoI/18/03135 and correspondence linked to
this case.   

 

I’ve been asked by Mary McAllan to carry out the review because I was not
involved in handling your original request. I will be looking at the case
afresh to establish whether all correspondence has been provided.

 

We received your review request on 25 February so I will respond in
accordance with FOISA by 26 March 2019.

If you have any queries, feel free to contact me quoting case number
FoI/19/00299

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Louisa

Dear Mr Paterson

 

I have not attached the original response content document to which you
refer as you have the redacted version of this. The redacted version has
not maintained the original numbering due to the volume of information
redacted.

 

I have provided a little more information below so you can see which
documents referred to. I’ve attached a copy of the redacted pages in
colour so you can see the sections referred to below, with the exception
of page 31 as it is redacted in full.

 

Page 31 – Highlighted in green – The note at the bottom of this page
should be redacted. has it just been missed rather than deliberately left
in. Page 31 refers to document 8 in the released information. This page
was redacted in full. The green section referred to a foot note which had
not been redacted in the version sent to SpAds

Page 43 – Highlighted in green – The start of paragraph 16 should also be
redacted. Refers to document 13. I’ve attached a copy of the redacted page
so you can see where the section in green is in the document

Page 55 – Highlighted in light blue – Not all of the names in this email
should be redacted E.G, the SpAds names should not be redacted, nor should
Perm Sec or DFM or DG Economy etc. The normal rules about which names
should and should not be redacted should be applied which will result in
most of these names being released. Attached copy of page

Page 55 – Highlighted in light grey – The bits highlighted on this page do
not think should be redacted and should in fact be released. Attached copy

Page 69 – Highlighted in green – The phone numbers highlighted should be
redacted. Attached copy of page

 

I consider this as an addition to my review response issued yesterday. The
review letter sets out the Scottish Information Commissioner’s details
should you wish to appeal.

 

Kind regards

 

Louisa
