Dear Mr Lindsay,

Thank you for your email to the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) requesting information under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). In order for us to be able to assist you with your request and best direct any search please could you refine the scope of your request.  As currently drafted your request is too broad and we may be unable to proceed with it.

Please provide further detail on what information you are interested in. Would it be possible for you to refine your request and specify a particular topic or country with regard to the Summit you are seeking?

Once we receive your revised request we will consider it and the appropriate course of action.

Yours sincerely

Dear Foreign and Commonwealth Office,

Thank you for your prompt reply. I am interested in the discussion related to Iraq at the summit, including reporting on this topic from British diplomats as well as any UK attempts to influence the summit itself. Please let me know if this sufficiently clarifies the request. If not, I would be happy to work with you on further specificity.

Yours faithfully,

David Lindsey

Yours sincerely

Dear Foreign and Commonwealth Office,

Thank you for your response. As per your letter, I am prepared to further narrow the request to just the 2nd item (Proposals for the exile of Saddam Hussein and responses to these proposals.). I hope that this is a sufficient narrowing and look forward to your response.

Yours faithfully,

David Lindsey
