Scottish Property Federation Conference documentation: FOI release

Information requested

1. All documentation held by the Scottish Government about Paul McLennan's appearance at the Scottish Property Federation's conference in April, including correspondence, minutes/notes from meetings, briefings, post-conference dressdown etc, between February 1 2024 and May 30 2024.

2. How much has the Scottish Government's budget for affordable housing supply been in each of the last five years?

Response

I enclose a copy of some of the information you requested.

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(s) under section(s) s.38(1)(b) (personal information) of FOISA applies to that information. The reasons why that exemption applies are explained below.

An exemption(s) under section(s) s.38(1) of FOISA applies to some of the information you have requested as personal information is exempt from disclosure. The Scottish Government withholds names (and other personal information) from documents released in response to an FOI request if those names are exempt from disclosure under the provisions set out in FOISA.

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.
