Dear FOI Officer,
Freedom Of Information request
Proof that the Crown owns Shetland
In response to our request for information showing proof that Shetland is part of Scotland, you were apparently unable to show any information which did not make the prior asumption of the Crown's sovereignty over Shetland. That request was closed on the basis that you do not hold the information.
With the knowledge that the Crown's sovereignty over Scotland is the same as its allodial ownership (Information from The Laws of Scotland, Stair memorial EncyclopaediaI already in your possession), please provide specific information showing proof that the Crown owns Shetland. This information is critical to your operations in Shetland and is something that should be at your fingertips.
It will be obvious to you that only if the Crown owns Shetland, can Scottish or UK legislation apply. We are looking for a treaty, or a document of that stature. Bland assurances or presumptions will not do.
If you have any doubt about the validity of this request, please refer to www.ourfois.com and click the link 'Invalid Responses'.
If you do not hold this information, please expect further requests regarding proof of your authority, and your business in Shetland. Our requests are sequential, dependent on each other and are not to be regarded as asking for the same or similar information in terms of the 2002 Act, nor are they asking for a legal opinion.
Please refer to www.ourfois.com for further information.
Regards
The Sovereign Nation of Shetland
