Dear Mr Brookes

Thank you for your recent request made under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.

I wish to advise you that we believe exemption(s) from release may apply.

The Information Governance Unit has not yet reached a decision on the balance of the public interest. Due to the need to consider, in all the circumstances of the case, where the balance of the public interest lies in relation to the information that you have requested, the department will not be able to respond to your request in full within 20 working days.

I hope to let you have a decision by 30th April 2014.
