Dear Team, FOI,

However, it makes no sense. I do not want any personal information or information relating to any individual. As I am sure you well know, I am requesting information that relates to a formal HMRC campaign -namely the ISBC s9A Enquiry Project.

I have named a specific individual because they are an identifiable member of the team that I am aware of. If I was to request the same information from any Senior Officer (which would be my preference) you would come back and say it was too wide ranging and there was too much information. Hence, I have narrowed it down as far as I can.

In light of this, please reconsider my request.

Yours sincerely,

Andrew Timothy
