Our ref: FOI2024/00062

Dear Janice Neuman,

I am writing with regards to your follow up to your request received on 18
July 2024. Please accept our apologies for any lack of response to your
original request. However, having received and responded to your request
Ref FOI2024/00061 on 12 February 2024, which included information on costs
for the benches but the application of exemption s43 (commercial
sensitivity) of the FOIA to certain details and breakdowns, our view was
that your questions had been answered and therefore this request was a
duplicate.

If there is further information that you required which was not provided
in our response to request Ref FOI2024/00061 please could you provide the
details to us, and we will endeavour to send you a response as soon as
possible.

Please remember to quote the reference number above in any future
communications.

Yours sincerely,
