For questions 3 – 11 below we may hold information but not in an easily extractable format – each of the referrals above would have to be examined manually for each piece of information and we estimate that given each one may take in excess of twenty minutes the total time needed would be well in excess of the 18 hours specified under the Freedom of Information Act 2001 – Section 12 – Cost of Compliance. Therefore this information is exempt.
