Rendition Flights – On 17 March 2015, Mr Ellison asked the Chief Constable of the Police Service of Scotland (Police Scotland) for a copy of the interim report to the Lord Advocate regarding his investigation of alleged rendition flights passing through Scottish airports.
Police Scotland responded by stating that the report was exempt from disclosure under a number of exemptions in FOISA. Following a review, Mr Ellison remained dissatisfied and applied to the Commissioner for a decision.
The Commissioner investigated and found that Police Scotland were entitled to refuse to disclose the interim report.
