Dear Freedom Of Information Team ( IND ),

Thanks for you're response.

I fail to see how this will cost you're department £600.

If it took 3 weeks to complete the task ie 504 hours in total. Then
I would understand the extortion in you're request that you are
making.

But in reality with staff that are on minimum wages for you're
request to be valid. We are talking well over 100 staff that will
have to be involved for you to be able to substantiate this
extortion.

This is nothing more than a time delaying tactic issued by a border
control authority.

Yours sincerely,

Bob Robertson
