Detected exemption language

Under section 25(1) of FOISA, we do not have to give you information which is already reasonably accessible to you. 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 exemptions under sections 38(1)(b) (personal information) of FOISA and 33(1)(b) (commercial interests) apply to some of that information. Annex C: Minutes to stakeholder liason meeting dated 28th January re: A9 Dualling Project Annex D: Minutes to stakeholder liason meeting dated 15th May re: A9 Dualling Project – design update 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 exemptions under sections 38(1)(b) (personal information) of FOISA. Reasons for not providing information An exemption under section 38(1)(b) of FOISA (personal information) applies to some of the information requested because it is personal data of a third party, ie names and contact details of individuals, and disclosing it would contravene the data protection principles in Schedule 1 to the Data Protection Act 1998. This exemption is not subject to the ‘public interest test’, so we are not required to consider if the public interest in disclosing the information outweighs the public interest in applying the exemption.
