Accountant in Bankruptcy payments to external suppliers: FOI release

Information request and response under the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002


Information requested

Information on all payments to external suppliers for purchases of goods and services between 2022-01-01 and 2022-12-31.

Response

I enclose a copy of most of the information you requested on the attached excel spreadsheet.

An exemption(s) under section 38(1)(b) of FOISA applies to some of the information you have requested. This is because it relates to third party personal data.

This exemption is not subject to the 'public interest test', so we are not required to consider if the public interest in disclosing the information outweighs the public interest in applying the exemption.

I would also like to advise you that the Accountant in Bankruptcy is required to publish statements on expenditure under the Public Services Reform Act 2010 and these include information on payments in excess of £25,000 and cumulative payments in excess of £25,000. These can be found on our website at Statements on expenditure | Accountant in Bankruptcy (aib.gov.uk).
