Response

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance Transport Scotland does not have the information you have requested. Transport Scotland does not have this information because we have not been contacted in relation to insurance claims for works to repair subsidence of the Mitchell Library building. Transport Scotland do not, therefore, hold any such information and so cannot provide it.

However, you may wish to contact Glasgow City Council at Contact Us - Glasgow City Council

This is a formal notice under section 17(1) of FOISA that Transport Scotland does not have the information you have requested.

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.
