Dear FOI,

For the below quote Request,

FOI Request: FA 21/03/00834

File Number: OBJ2021/9119

As I understand based on the document provided by you in response, this document does not exist with the department. Due to this, I would like to request you to provide information/report such as the one provided for another FOI Request: FA 20/02/01122 (this is very similar to the FOI request I have raised (FA 21/03/00834) with exception of a 2 columns)

This previous FOI number that I have provided: FA 20/02/01122 has only 2 columns 1. Council name and 2. Number of approved applicants waiting for the Citizenship ceremony as the two columns.

Could you please provide the same information, but for the councils that are listed in the FOI request that I have raised (FA 21/03/00834) for applicants approved upto date 31/01/2021. IF it is not possible to add the filter for "applicants approved upto date 31/01/2021" - then please provided only the 1. Council name and 2. Number of approved applicants waiting for the Citizenship ceremony as the two columns.

Please let me know if you need any further information.

Thank you
Jamun Lab

Yours sincerely,

Jamun Lab
