Dear Information Rights (Sensitive),

Dear Naveed SomanI
Thank you for your FOI request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.
We received your request on 1st January. It has been assigned a unique
reference number (above). We aim to respond by Thursday, 21st January.
Please note, however, that reprioritisation of resources due to the
COVID-19 crisis, and measures we are required to take to prevent the
spread of the virus, continue to have an impact on our ability to respond
to all requests within the statutory deadline.
We have significantly reduced on-site working which will mean delays to
responses which require access to paper records.
We are endeavouring to process requests as quickly as possible, and
appreciate your patience at this time.
Yours sincerely,
Information Rights Unit
Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office
