Dear Mr Kallidai,

Thanks for your request dated 29 October 2009.
We have evaluated the scope of your request and determined that it would
take more than 3 and a half days (or £600) to locate, retrieve and
extract this information. This is in breach of the appropriate limit laid
down by Section 12 of the Freedom of Information Act. Under
this section public authorities have the right to refuse requests for
information where the cost of dealing with them would exceed the
appropriate limit.

Bearing this in mind, would you consider limiting your request to the last
two years?

Yours sincerely,

Evelyn
