Request for information under the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act

Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 (FOISA) for information around
Hospital Appointments.  In particular, I asked you to clarify your
definition of 'rebate schemes'?

  

As you have not responded to my request for clarification,
I am unable to proceed further with your request.  Under section 1(3) of
FOISA, if we ask you to clarify your request so that we can identify and
locate the information you are
looking for, then we are not obliged to provide that information until you have given us the clarification we require.  

  

However, if you wish to submit a new
request which more clearly describes the information you are
looking for, we would be able to consider your request and
respond in accordance with FOISA.  If you need any further advice and assistance to clarify your request, please contact me.  You may also find it helpful to look at the Scottish Information Commissioner’s ‘Tips for requesting
information under FOI and
the EIRs’ on her website at: [1]http://www.itspublicknowledge.info/YourR...

to Information Governance Manager, NHS Western Isles, 37 South Beach
Street, Stornoway Isle of Lewis, HS1 2BB stating clearly why you wish a
review to be carried out.  

  

If, following the outcome of a request for review, you are still
dissatisfied you have the right to make an application for a decision by
the Scottish Information Commissioner under section 47(1) of the Freedom
of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 within 6 months of receiving the
response to review letter.  The Commissioner can be contacted at Kinburn
