Information requested

Could you supply all correspondence sent and received by the Scottish Government to/from councils about housing emergencies, including briefings written by officials about councils declaring housing emergencies, between November 1 2023 and December 31 2023?

Response

I enclose a copy of most of the information you requested. For ease I have broken down your request into four parts –

First Minister Question Briefs SG Officials correspondence to/from Councils Correspondence between Ministers and Councils Briefings

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 an exemption under section 38(1)(b) (Personal Information) of FOISA applies to that information.
