Open data - freedom of information requests performance latest week

This dataset is published as Open Data and represents the most recent week's report on completions of Freedom of Information requests made to the council. This dataset is intended to be single-line only.

The Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 (FOISA) came into force on 1 January 2005. Under FOISA, a person who requests information from a Scottish public authority which holds it is entitled to be given it by the authority subject to certain conditions and exemptions set out in the Act.

The FOI Act is enforced and promoted by the Scottish Information Commissioner. They have published a short guide to your rights under FOI, entitled Your Right To Know - A Guide to FOI in Scotland and you can find out more about your rights in the Your Rights section of the website. They also maintain a series of more detailed briefings on exemptions and key concepts which can be found at the briefings and guidance pages of the website.
