Information requested
All documentation held by the Scottish Government, including correspondence sent and received (including internal), minutes/notes from meetings, briefings and analysis, about funding for the Edinburgh University supercomputer, from the last three months.
Response
I enclose a copy of some of the information you requested. The answer to your question is attached in the annexes.
While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance we are specifically 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 only redactions we have made concern identifiable information such as names, telephone numbers, addresses and email addresses.
Some of the information included is drawn from documents that fall outside the scope of this request. Further detail will be provided in the annex.
