whilst the two acts are similar in principle, there are some significant differences in implementation; as a rule, the scottish act is more strongly worded. for example, the scottish test for public interest is stated in terms of ""substantial prejudice"" rather than ""prejudice"", which is clearly a higher standard, and imposes a stricter time limit in cases where public interest has to be considered. it contains explicit mention of disability access rights and the duties incumbent on a body which does "not" have the information requested, both of which are lacking in the 2000 act, and provides for an "objective" test (rather than "the reasonable opinion of a qualified person") to determine if the public interest means information should be withheld.
