Dear T. Benseman

 

I am writing to you on behalf of the Office of the Prime Minister (PMO).
 You have requested:

 

the complete accounting of all correspondence, meetings, phone
conversations, memos, payments etc between you and the United Nations (and
their agents). And also, between all branches of your government, and the
United Nations (and their agents) between 1/8/2019 and 1/8/2020.

 

On review of your request, PMO believe the information you have requested
would likely to be refused under section 18(f) of the Act, as it would
require substantial collation or research to provide.

 

Therefore, we are seeking a refinement of your request. I believe this
could be achieved by limiting your request to specific information
regarding the United Nations.

 

Please advise whether you are happy to refine your request by 18 August.
