Subject: Re: RE FOI 052: Freedom of Information request - ABC Style Guides/Brand Guides/Writing Guides [ABC-Legal.FID97928]
From: Alex Pentland <[FOI #10998 email]>
To: FOI ABC <[ABC request email]>

Dear FOI ABC,

I must apologise for my late reply to this request.

For the purpose of the request, this request is primarily concerned with the corporate side of ABC's documents. I acknowledge the difficult and limited areas the FOI has in terms of ABC content for consumption, so I am largely excluding journalistic guides and instructional materials for this request. More than happy to leave that to others.

Most government corporate entities, agencies, and other such bodies will have such corporate documents, and these are the ones I am looking for primarily.

Happy to extend or make a subsequent request given the nature of the request and my delayed answer.

Yours sincerely,

Alex Pentland

Good evening Mr Pentland

Thank you for your email.

The ABC would be grateful if you would clarify the scope of your request. Is it possible to call and ask speak to the FOI team so we can discuss with you?

For example, does the Guide you refer to pertain to the ABC's journalism or a specific area of the ABC?

Many thanks,
ABC FOI team
