Good afternoon Rob Stewart

 

Thank you for your email below.

 

Before registering your request in our FOI database, I need some clarity
around the scope, as in its current form, I am not able to commence
searches as I am unsure of what you are seeking.

 

 1. With regards to data sharing, what type of data are you referring to
and to who or what other agencies?
 2. With regards to the list of document types you have provided, are you
seeking access to any and all agreements, including preliminary
agreements around data sharing? I note that we do not necessarily
refer to documents in the same manner you have stated but ‘all’
agreements would cover all document types.
 3. With regards to time frame, are you seeking any data sharing
agreements that are active AS WELL AS any data sharing agreements that
ceased within the last 10 years?

 

By clarifying your request and limiting the scope to specific documents, I
will better be able to process your request in a timely manner.

 

I look forward to your response by 15 March 2024.

 

Kind regards
