Request

On 30 January 2024 you made a Freedom of Information (FOI) request to the Scottish Police Authority.

In response to your request the Authority advised it considered that to reveal whether the information exists or is held would be contrary to the public interest under Section 18 of the Act. This is because an individual’s own personal information is exempt from disclosure in terms of the Act under section 38(1)(a). We advised that most of your request was technically a Subject Access Request, therefore our Information Management team would contact you in relation to this.

We also confirmed that information on case references is not held by the Authority and advised that Police Scotland may hold information.
