Please accept my apology for the delay in response to you regarding your
request for information.

Unfortunately, due the unprecedented challenges the Authority are
currently facing due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, resources
have been diverted away from usual compliance work to help with other
challenges.

As the Authority has not answered your original request, which is now 1
day over the statutory period, I would like to assure you that I have
followed this up with the service area to provide a response to you as
soon as possible.

Once again apologies for any inconvenience.

Kind Regards
