Dear Mr Jones,
Thank you for your email of 23 May 2023 in which you requested the following information:
“Dear British Army,
Please provide a break down of costs relating to the bomb threat on Sunderland city hall in 2022.”
I am treating your correspondence as a request for information under the Freedom of Information
Act (FOIA) 2000. A search for the information has now been completed within the Ministry of
Defence, and I can confirm that no information in scope of your request is held.
Under Section 16 of the Act (Advice and Assistance) you may find it helpful to note that our records
do not show any attendance from the British Army at the incident you have referenced.
If you have any queries regarding the content of this letter, please contact this office in the first
instance. Following this, if you wish to complain about the handling of your request, or the content
of this response, you can request an independent internal review by contacting the Information
Rights Compliance team, Ground Floor, MOD Main Building, Whitehall, SW1A 2HB (e-mail

working days of the date of this response.
If you remain dissatisfied following an internal review, you may raise your complaint directly to the
Information Commissioner under the provisions of Section 50 of the Freedom of Information Act.
Please note that the Information Commissioner will not normally investigate your case until the
MOD internal review process has been completed. The Information Commissioner can be
