Dear Air-DRes Sec-ParliBusiness (MULTIUSER),

Thank you for responding.

Further to my initial request, did the Air Force actually chase,
intercept, or investigate any unknown flying objects over Kent, or
Surrey on the 21st January 2012?

I dont believe the response provided covered the question
adequately as it did not state whether the Air Force had chased,
intercepted, or investigated any unknown flying objects over Kent,
or Surrey on the 21st January 2012.

Yours sincerely,
Mr Phillips
