Dear Mr Davies,

 

Further to our acknowledgement, please can you provide some clarification
on your request below in order for us to be able to provide you with the
most relevant information.

 

Can you provide a definition of outsourcing? To clarify, we have software
managed by 3^rd parties that,  depending on your definition, might include
this as outsourcing.

 

Yours sincerely,

Diane Lambert
