Ref. FOI 2024/22634
18 December 2024
Dear Raymond Putman,
Thank you for your correspondence of 20 November 2024 requesting the following information:
“I am currently conducting research into the layout of Keady Base in 1993 South Armagh, I would
appreciate the layout and dimensions as I was there as a soldier during an attack in Mar 1993 and
with the interviews of friends also there I would like to create a timeline and their individual position
during the attack to give a better overall appreciation of the incident.”
I am treating your correspondence as a request for information under the Freedom of Information
Act 2000 (FOIA).
A search for the information has now been completed within the Ministry of Defence (MOD) and I
can confirm that no information in scope of your request is held.
Under Section 16 of the FOIA (Advice and Assistance), you may find it helpful to know that this
site was not a MOD site. The site was a Royal Ulster Constabulary Police service base, which was
later sold.
If you have any queries regarding the content of this letter, please contact this office in the first
instance.
If you wish to complain about the handling of your request, or the content of this response, you
can request an independent internal review by contacting the Information Rights Compliance
team, Ground Floor, MOD Main Building, Whitehall, SW1A 2HB (e-mail
CIO-FOI-
xx@xxx.xxx.xx). Please note that any request for an internal review should be made in writing
within 40 working days of the date of this response.
If you remain dissatisfied following an internal review, you may raise your complaint directly to the
Information Commissioner under the provisions of Section 50 of the Freedom of Information Act.
Please note that the Information Commissioner will not normally investigate your case until the
MOD internal review process has been completed. The Information Commissioner can be
contacted at: Information Commissioner’s Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow,
Cheshire, SK9 5AF. Further details of the role and powers of the Information Commissioner can
be found on the Commissioner's website at
https://ico.org.uk/.
Yours sincerely
DIO Secretariat
