Information requested

Original request 202500459235

All correspondence between Transport Scotland and Argyll and Bute Council regarding the proposed Oban Harbour Revision Order since, and including, 7 November 2024.

Your request has asked for the inclusion of relevant notes of any meetings (on-line or in person), telephone calls, emails and any written communication.

Response

I have now completed my review of our response to your request under the Environmental Information (Scotland) Regulations 2004 (EIRs) for case 202500459235.

You asked for Transport Scotland to provide you with suitably redacted copies of all correspondence between Transport Scotland and Argyll and Bute Council regarding the proposed Oban Harbour Revision Order since, and including, 7 November 2024. Your request has asked for the inclusion of relevant notes of any meetings (on-line or in person), telephone calls, emails and any written communication.

I have concluded that the original decision was partially incorrect and that the exemption under Section 29(1)(a) was not appropriate in these circumstances. I must apologise for the incorrect exemption being applied. Whilst looking at the original request I can see that confusion arose due to the Harbour Order process still being underway and the perception that an FOI exemption could be applied.

I have enclosed a copy of some of the information you requested in the attached documents.
