A separate measure was put through Parliament to apply the changes to Scottish public authorities too. Susan Graham. Date: Fri, 4 Feb 2005 15:41:10 +0000 From: Les Kingstone <[log in to unmask]> Subject: FoI Query As a matter of interest, the FoI in England & Wales changes DPA 1998. As this is in just the English & Welsh legislation would that mean that as there is no such clauses (that I can find) in the Scottish Bill, that the changes would only apply to England & Wales???
