Dear Sir or Madam,

Under the environment information act could you please forward me
all review comments made by any of your employees as part of the
most recent IPCC report.

I would also like to be sent all communications between anybody
working for the Met Office (and any subsidiaries / linked
organisations) and the IPCC.

Please note that this request is under the environment information
act, rather than the freedom of information act.

Yours faithfully,

James

Dear FOImanager,

Further to your letter I can confirm that I only wish to view
correspondence between the Met Office (and subsidiaries) and the
IPCC in relation to AR4.

This would include any correspondence by any employees of the Met
Office (and subsidiaries) who were part of the IPCC working groups,
in addition to review comments. If the employees were there in a
private capacity, and were attending whilst on annual or unpaid
leave, then these would not be subject to this request.

Yours sincerely,

James Snowdome
