Dear Helen,

I acknowledge your request for information received on 05/02/2024.

Your request is being considered and you will receive the information requested as soon as possible, but in any case by the statutory timescale of 20 working days as defined by the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOI) unless the information requested is subject to a statutory exemption on disclosure or the information contains reference to a third party.

For your information, the Act defines a number of exemptions, which may prevent release of the information you have requested. Some exemptions are subject to a public interest test. There will be an assessment and if any of the exemption categories apply and any relevant public interest test is weighed in favour of withholding the information it will not be released. You will be informed if this is the case, including your rights of appeal.

If the information you request contains reference to a third party then they may need to be consulted before a decision is taken on whether the information can be released to you. You will be informed if this is the case.

If you have any queries or concerns then please contact:
