Response

The Scottish Police Authority has considered your request under the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act (FOISA).

The decision has been reviewed by an independent reviewer who was not involved in the original decision-making process.

We can confirm that the original decision is upheld for the following reasons:

The Authority is not an operational law enforcement agency and has no role in or information on the deportation of British Citizens and any abuse of their Human Rights. The Authority explained this and correctly issued a notice in terms of section 17 of FOISA advising information is not held.

In respect to your request for review and a link included to an Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) document. We would advise that FOISA is devolved legislation regulated by the Scottish Information Commissioner.
