Strathbraan Raven Cull

The request was partially successful.

Joshua Allsopp

Dear Scottish Natural Heritage,

In light of the recent raven cull license issued by your organisation in Strathbraan, I request access to the information submitted by the Strathbraan Community Collaboration for Waders that informed this decision in order for a scientifically-backed response.

I also request to see all and any correspondence and communications made by local grouse moor groups/owners/individuals in relation this matter. (If this is not available, then number of responses and action taken - ie meetings, responses, backing, etc - will suffice).

I wish to see what links SNH has with the Scottish grouse moor community through its members, funding, private backing, etc.

Finally, I request information on the number of successful prosecutions made with the involvement of SNH into the illegal persecution of raptor species on Scottish grouse moors, and any measures SNH is undertaking to end this illegal activity.

Yours faithfully,
Joshua Allsopp

Dear Scottish Natural Heritage,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Scottish Natural Heritage's handling of my FOI request 'Strathbraan Raven Cull'.

Disappointingly your organisation has failed to respond to a simple information request within the timeframe set out by law.

I have now escalated this and the individual responsible to the appropriate authority and I urge an internal review.

This conduct is totally unacceptable from a public authority and must be investigated fully.

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/s...

Yours faithfully,

Joshua Allsopp
