Good Morning

Further to your Freedom of Information Request below, we need to seek clarification regarding part of this request.

Could you please clarify what you mean by how much has been paid to Liaison since their services were first acquired. Do you mean the amount we pay them to then pay on, or do you mean what we pay them for their services.

Please note that until we receive a response to this request your FOI will be on ‘clock stop’. This means that the 20 day time frame will be put on hold until you provide us with further clarity.

Please note that should we not receive a response to this request for clarification by 13.8.18, we will assume that you no longer require the information and will close the request.
