Information requested

All information earmarked by the Scottish Government for release to the Scottish Parliament's Committee on the Scottish Government Handling of Harassment Complaints.

Response

Copies of all the information that you have requested will be available at the following link to the Scottish Government's published version of this response and the associated documents from 3pm on Thursday 16 July : https://www.gov.scot/publications/foi-202000049070/ The reason for providing you with access to the documents in this manner is to enable a full response to you within the deadline, given the volume of the information (156 documents) and the impact that Covid-19 planning has had on Scottish Government resources (including the challenges of homeworking). However, please let me know if you would like me to follow up by providing the documents on an additional medium (e.g. CD or DVD) and I will arrange for this.

Included with the documents is a Written Statement, which was provided to the Committee on Scottish Government Handling of Harassment Complaints in a secure folder, along with relevant documents. The Written Statement includes footnotes with hyperlinks, including hyperlinks to those relevant documents. Where documents are available online, the hyperlink goes to the website with the document, so these hyperlinks should be accessible. However, where the footnote relates to documents not previously published, the hyperlink leads to the secure folder, which will not work for those that do not have access to that secure folder. These documents have therefore been reproduced in folders relating to specific footnotes. Therefore if a footnote hyperlink in the statement does not work, please consult the folder that matches the number of the footnote.

By way of additional explanation, the documents released in response to your request are identical to those that were released to the Scottish Parliament's Committee on the Scottish Government Handling of Harassment Complaints on 19 June 2020.
