Dear Ms Greer

 

Apologies for not responding on Friday.  I am advising a short extension
to the date to respond to your request as some further consultation is
required with a staff member who has recently been unavailable (this is
now resolved).  We will provide a response to your request by this Friday,
2 October.

 

Kind regards
