Dear Foreign and Commonwealth Office,

In response to your last mail, following my FOIA request, I am writing to refine my search to aid a reply, after being told my current request was 'too broad.' To clarify the scope of my request:

All of my requests of access are with regard to any communications regarding the Great Lakes region, but most specifically Rwanda and Uganda. I am researching the British governments response to the Rwandan genocide, so the following documents would be most helpful.

I request access to, under the FOIA, Uganda/Kampala-London FCO cables and correspondence written between 1st October 1990 and 20th December, 1990, regarding or discussing the Great Lakes region of Africa, specifically Rwanda and Uganda.

I request access to, under the FOIA, Uganda/Kampala-London FCO cables and correspondence written from and between January 1994 - July 1994, regarding or discussing the Great Lakes region of Africa, specifically Rwanda and Uganda.

I also request access to the FCO 'Rwanda: Annual Review 1990' released on 23rd January 1991, regarding Rwanda.

Please let me know if this narrows my scope slightly to aid a speedy response. If it does not, please advise me how else I can make my requests.

Yours faithfully,

Kirstie Brittain

Foreign and Commonwealth Office
