Dear Ms Jasem, 
Please accept my apologies for the delay in responding to your request for
information. 
As the information you have requested is ‘environmental information’ for
the purposes of the Environmental Information (Scotland) Regulations 2004
(EIRs), we are required to deal with your request under those Regulations.
We have therefore applied the exemption contained in section 39(2) of
FOISA and will deal with your request for environmental information under
the EIRs alone.
Your request for information was for the following:
details of Tenders issued and Quotes accepted in the past year in relation
to Caledonia Water Alliance works for the full network
In response to your enquiry, please note that Scottish Water does not
maintain details of tender enquiries which are issued by Caledonia Water
Alliance to their supply chain. The information requested is therefore
exempt under s.10 (4a) of EIR on the basis that the requested information
is not held by Scottish Water.  
As the exception is conditional we are required to apply the ‘public
interest test’. This means we have, in all the circumstances of this case,
considered if the public interest in disclosing the information outweighs
the public interest in applying the exception.  We have found that, on
balance, the public interest lies in favour of upholding the exception. 
While we recognise that there may be some public interest in information
about the tenders,  clearly we cannot provide information which we do not
hold.
If you have any queries regarding your FOI request please feel free to
contact me and I will be happy to assist. You can do this by contacting
the following email address [email address]
You can seek a review of this response within forty working days and
thereafter appeal to the Scottish Information Commissioner.
Further information on the appeals procedure can be obtained from the
attached document and the Commissioner's website at
www.itspublicknowledge.info/Appeal.
Yours sincerely,
