Dear FOI (SCOTTISH AMBULANCE SERVICE),

Thank you for your response.

I would just like to clarify that you do not hold the information regarding expenses paid to community responder groups for items such as fuel / travel costs.

As a public sector organisation is it not mandated that you must follow the Scottish Public Finance Manual Annex 2 (Retention of records).

Yours sincerely,

Jon Watson
