Thank-you for your email.
I'd like to re-submit the request again, but this time, to concentrate on the emails to or from @careinspectorate.gov.scot (1,675 emails). I'm happy to narrow the request to the timeframe 1st March to the current day. I hope that will fall within the costs.
Yours sincerely,
Jenna Corderoy
Dear Ms Corderoy,
I write in relation to your Freedom of Information resubmitted request to Inverclyde Council dated 28th May 2020.
Unfortunately the search has returned a higher number than previously found. We are happy to help where we can however would require further clarity in order to reduce this number to see if we can assist you. Can you be more specific around the detail requested i.e. only messages including Coronavirus or COVID or pandemic?
I look forward to hearing from you.
Many thanks
Annmarie
