Men’s Sheds documentation: FOI release

Information requested

All documentation held by the Scottish Government about Men's Sheds, including correspondence sent and received, including internal, briefings, minutes/notes from meetings, analysis, between November 1 1 2024 and February 1 2025.

Response

I have attached a copy of some of the information you requested in Disclosures 1-4.

We have interpreted your request in line with your ask as stated above, all documentation that we hold about men’s sheds within the date range you have specified. The attached document contains the information we determine is within scope of your request.

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 exemption(s) under section(s) 29(1)(a) (formulation of Scottish Administration policy), 30(b)(i) (free and frank provision of advice) and 38(1)(a) (personal information) apply. The reasons why those exemptions apply are explained in the Annex to this letter. In addition, I have redacted information in documents and emails that is out with the scope of your request.
