as soon as possible and a staff member will be in contact in due
course.  
* Media queries will be referred to the Minister’s press secretary.  
* If you have made a request for official information, then this will be
managed in accordance with the provisions of the Official Information
Act 1982, which may include a transfer to a more relevant Minister or
agency.  

  
Support is available:
