24-25/54

I refer to your request for information (FOI 24-25/54) dated 23 October 2024 for records related to a previous email which we have handled under the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act (FOISA).

You asked for "internal correspondence relating to the preparation of the email you sent on 7 December 2022” to include “email inboxes, sent items, email archives, email deleted items, email deleted sent items” between 8 November 2022 and 8 December 2022 to include a search for records referencing a named individual. You also asked for messaging systems to be checked for the same period as well as “corporate system backup copies” for the period between 8 November 2022 and8 January 2023.

Please note that we have searched and do not hold a record relating to the preparation of the email dated 7 December 2022. I have therefore applied section 17(1)(b) of FOISA to this response as we do not hold this information.

You may contact informationgovernance@gtcs.org.uk if you are dissatisfied with this response, to request GTC Scotland conduct a review of it. You should describe the original request and explain your grounds of review. You have 40 working days from receipt of this response to submit a review request. When the review process has been completed, if you are still dissatisfied, you may use the Scottish Information Commissioner’s guidance on making an appeal to make an appeal to the Commissioner.
