Request
Your request was about the following information:
'1. Any complaints made to the FSS about false advertising with regards to Scottish food products
2. The nature of these complaints, who they were made by, and what the product/business is
3. Details of all investigations launched by the FSS into allegations of false advertising
4. Details of any investigation currently being undertaken by the FSS'
Response
1. There have been 6 reports made to FSS about false advertising.
2. An exemption applies to this information.
3. An exemption applies to this information.
4. We currently have 2 live investigations being undertaken by FSS but are unable to give the details as an exemption applies to that information.
While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance we are unable to provide some of the information you have requested because an exemption under section 34 (1)(b) (Investigations by Scottish public authorities and proceedings arising out of such investigations) of FOISA applies to the information we do hold.
