Noting you have now received a copy of the document sought, I would be grateful if you would please confirm by return email that your FOI request is withdrawn.

Dear FOI,

Unfortunately, the file seems to be corrupt; when I open this document, I only see blank pages with a few occasional lines. The substance of the report is entirely missing. Can you resend the report to me?

Yours sincerely,

Alim Jiwa

Dear FOI,

You previous response to my request provided a corrupted PDF that simply had largely blank pages. I would once again like to request that you provide me with the proper file. Thank you for your assistance, and I would greatly appreciate a prompt response.

Yours sincerely,

Alim Jiwa
