I can confirm that the Scottish Government does not have the information you have asked for. I have searched our records and can find no correspondence relevant to your request.

This is a formal notice under section 17(1) of FOISA that  the  Scottish Government does not have the information you have  requested.

I have however provided links below to the National Museums of Scotland website which provides details of the announcement of the Galloway Hoard and the partnership agreement  with Dumfries and Galloway  Council.
