Response

I enclose a copy of some of the information you requested. Please refer to the document list attached which outlines which documents are relevant to each question.

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance we are unable to provide some of the information you have requested because the following exemptions under FOISA apply:

17 - Information not held 25(1) - Otherwise accessible 30(c) - Substantial prejudice to effective conduct of public affairs 38(1)(b) - Third party personal data

SPPA do not hold some of the information requested as some assessments have not been required. Links have been provided in the document list to information that is otherwise accessible. Certain impact assessments have not been disclosed as doing so would compromise the security of the SPPA, substantially prejudicing the effective conduct of public affairs. Colleagues' names below executive team level have been redacted from documents to keep their data private.
