Dear James Green 8935,

Thank you for your response and the link to the report which I had not known about.

I will study the report to see if the questions are answered within it. If they are not then naturally the questions will remain as part of this FOI request unless you have the section of the FOI Act that states differently.

Please could you also answer Question 9 which I doubt will be in the report

Yours sincerely,

Shona Scott

Dear James Green 8935,

Further to my last reply, I note that you are not the Police Service responsible for this Operation so I apologise and withdraw my last reply.
Thank you for the assistance

Yours sincerely,

Shona Scott
