Detected exemption language
Of these, how many were subject to exemptions where the 'public interest test' applies? In how many of those cases did the government decide that, although an exemption did apply, the public interest test favoured greater disclosure (with the material therefore released)?” Response 1. Our case management system records information about exemptions where consideration of the public interest (PI) test has resulted in information being withheld, either wholly or in part. This is a formal notice under section 17(1) of FOISA that the Scottish Government does not have the information you have requested. A further breakdown of how FOI requests were responded to within this period is shown in the table below: Reponse Decision Number of cases Full disclosure 153 Partial disclosure 115 No information released (reasons include upper cost limit applies, information not held, and all absolute and qualified exemptions) 164 Request invalid 2 Total 434 3.
