Mr Tom Gordon requested all records held in relation to Annex B of Choosing Scotland’s Future, a Draft Referendum (Scotland) Bill from the Scottish Ministers (the Ministers). The Ministers responded by informing Mr Gordon that the information he sought was exempt under FOISA. Following a review, Mr Gordon remained dissatisfied and applied to the Commissioner for a decision.
Following an investigation, the Commissioner found that the Ministers had dealt with Mr Gordon’s request for information in accordance with Part 1 of FOISA, on the basis that it was exempt under section 29(1)(a) of FOISA.
