Dear FOI Team Mailbox,

Thank you for your initial response.

I am however not seeking new information. Nor an I seeking opinion or explanation, such as you are suggesting.

I am asking, fundamentally, this;

Since 1st January 2017, to date, have UK Government ever had a policy of;

(1) Perverting the course of justice and/or;

(2) Conspiring to pervert the course of justice.

I now await your substantive response to these two very straightforward questions.

Yours sincerely,
