the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. As a result resources, both finances and
people, are being diverted away from many of our usual activities to deal with
the pandemic. This will undoubtedly impact on our ability to comply with the
normal requirements for information rights work and as a result you may
experience delays when making information rights requests during the
pandemic. We thank you for your understanding during this time. The following
