Correspondence between Cabinet Secretary for Transport and Caledonian Maritime Assets Limited (CMAL): FOI release
Information request and response under the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002
Information requested
"Please provide correspondence between Fiona Hyslop, her advisors, and CMAL, from 1 March 2025 to 18 March."
Response
I enclose a copy of the information you requested below.
An exemption under regulation 38(1)(b) of the FOISA (personal information of a third party) applies to some of the information requested because it is personal data of a third party and disclosing it would contravene the data protection principles in Article 5(1) of the General Data Protection Regulation and in section 34(1) of the Data Protection Act 2018. 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 exception.
