Dear Ms Harris

From our preliminary assessment, it is clear that we will not be able to answer your request without further clarification as your request is rather broad in what information you are seeking.

In particular, it would be useful to know what particular companies you are looking for that we may have requested advice from and if there are any particular Countries that we may have requested such advice from.

Once you have clarified your request, I will be able to begin to process your request. If I do not receive clarification within three months your request will be considered to have lapsed. (Under section 1(3) of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), a public authority need not comply with a request unless any further information reasonably required to locate the information is supplied).

Yours sincerely
