Dear David

 

Attached is a spreadsheet which provides the information relating to the
first three bullet points of your request.

 

With regards to the last bullet point: it will require significant
research and collation to locate all of the briefings, reports and advice
related to these change processes and we will need to refuse the request
on those grounds.  Prior to confirming our decision I would like to
provide you with the opportunity to modify your request so that is is more
easily achievable, for example was there anthing specific you were looking
for?

 

I am happy to discuss if that would be helpful.

 

Regards

 

Kevin
