Response

Details of all Ministerial engagements are proactively published by the Scottish Government. Going forward this will include diary information of the Cabinet Secretary for Housing. This transparency data can be accessed via this weblink: https://www.gov.scot/collections/ministerial-engagements-travel-andgifts/.

This is a formal notice that Section 27(1) of FOISA applies to some of the information you have requested. The information requested will be published within 12 weeks of your request and will be available at the link above. This exemption allows public authorities to refuse to disclose information if they already plan to publish it within the next 12 weeks. If, however, you do not have internet access to obtain this information from the website listed, then please contact me again and I will send you a paper copy.

Given the diary information for the month of July will be published out with this 12 week period, I can confirm that no meetings took place with the listed organisations between the 1 and 9 July. It may be helpful to note, however, that the Cabinet Secretary for Housing has met or engaged with all but one of the stakeholders listed at the time of this response and has a meeting arranged with the one outstanding.
