DEREK CANNING LLB[HONS] 20 Posted November 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 The RSPB poisoning birds. https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/poisoning_of_sea_birds_by_the_rs#comment-11554 Scottish Natural Heritage, Battleby, Redgorton, Per th, PH1 3EW Tel 01738 444177 Fax 01738 458611 www.snh.org.uk Mr David Street By Email: DAVID STREET request-34619-73029c9a@whatdotheyknow.com 07 July 2010 Our ref: A421875 Dear Mr Street Review of SNH Response to Information Request Thank you for your request for an internal review o f our response to your recent information request. We considered your request under the Envi ronmental Information (Scotland) Regulations 2004 (the ‘EIRs’). From the review that I have undertaken I am satisfi ed that the correct procedures were followed at the time of your original request and t hat we conducted a thorough search for information in response to it. I am writing to inf orm you that I therefore support our response to your request and the explanation contained in ou r letter dated 1 June 2010. I do however find that we could have been clearer in telling you that we do not hold the information you are seeking, and that an EIR exception therefore applie s in this case. Your request asked us for information about a speci fic licence that you believed had been issued to the RSPB, and about the numbers of birds that were poisoned as a result. We replied that, having completed our searches of the information we hold, we could confirm that Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) had never issued li cences to the RSPB, or anyone else, to poison sea birds in the Firth of Forth. In your re view request you stated that you had been told that birds had been poisoned after the 1981 Wi ldlife Act, and that this had been done under general licence. In response to your review request, I have ensured that we have again conducted a comprehensive search of our information holdings. This has confirmed that, as explained in our previous response, we are aware of poisoning ha ving been carried out on certain islands in the Firth of Forth in the 1970s and 1980s. A fu rther document that we have unearthed shows that this occurred up until 1989. Prior to the enactment of the Wildlife and Countrys ide Act in 1981 the licensing of such activities was the responsibility of the Secretary of State for Scotland. After this Act came into force, this activity could be licensed by either th e Scottish Secretary of State or the relevant Nature Conservancy Council. The relevant Nature Co nservancy Council in this case would have been the Nature Conservancy Council up until 1 991, the Nature Conservancy Council for Scotland between 1991 and 1992, and from then o nwards Scottish Natural Heritage. SNH can find no record that we have issued any lice nces to permit such work. To the best of our knowledge, therefore, we do not hold the inform ation you are asking for. We believe that in these circumstances it is appropriate to apply t he exception under Regulation 10(4)(a) of the EIRs – Information not held – in this case. A421875 2 cont... You mention that you understand that poisoning was carried out under a general licence. SNH does not issue general licences. The Scottish Government uses general licences in certain circumstances but we are not aware of any h aving been issued to cover the use of poisons. Appeal Process I hope that the information that we have provided t o you makes our position clear. I am satisfied that we do not hold any records which we can provide in response to your information request. We must explain your rights of appeal. The EIRs ma ke provision for applicants to appeal to the Scottish Information Commissioner for a decisio n on whether their request has been dealt with in accordance with the Regulations. Should yo u wish to lodge such an appeal, the Scottish Information Commissioner can be contacted at this address: Scottish Information Commissioner Kinburn Castle Doubledykes Road St Andrews Fife KY16 9DS Telephone: 01334 464610 http://www.itspublicknowledge.info/ Yours sincerely John Thomson Director of Strategy & Communications Quote Link to post
