This document contains an update on information requests received by the Cairngorms National Park Authority (CNPA) during 2020-2021 and the first quarter of 2021-2022. In 2020-2021, the CNPA received 37 requests, with all but one answered on time. The delay was due to a recording error. Three internal reviews were requested, with two confirming the CNPA's response and one partially confirmed after further information was found. During the first quarter of 2021-2022, 12 requests were received, with two responses delayed due to staff absences. Increased requests for detailed correspondence contributed to these delays. One request had information partly withheld due to an ongoing police investigation, and one internal review resulted in partial confirmation after further information was found.
