Dear Chris Sharman

 

The information that you have requested is below (see Bold typeface).

 

Unfortunately, as you will see, some of the information, the annual cost
of the online training provision, which you have requested has been deemed
as highly commercially sensitive and the manager responsible has not
disclosed this information to me.
