Dear Mr Reith,

Thank you for your email of the 5^th May 2009, in which you requested an Internal Review into the timeliness of our response to your Freedom of Information Act request concerning John Stalker.

I have been allocated your request for an Internal Review as an independent official of the Home Office who was not involved in answering your original request.

The Home Office aims to complete your review and provide you with a response within 40 working days from the date we received your request. Therefore, we aim to have provided you with a full response by the 1^st July 2009.

If you have any queries regarding the handling of this internal review, then please do not hesitate to contact me.

Yours sincerely

Diana Pottinger

Information Access Consultant
