This MoD file, titled UFOs - Persistent Correspondence - Dr David Clarke, holds Dr David Clarke's Freedom of Information requests and emails to the Directorate of Air Staff from 2005 to 2008. Clarke asked for the DI55 report on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena in the UK Air Defence Region and for Rendlesham papers. He also sought records about Nick Pope. Other items include an internal review that released redacted passages on plasmas, the MoD's statement that it had no report of the 2008 South Wales police helicopter sighting, and a 2009 disposal form.

## FOI Request - UFOs

## Dear Section 40

I wish to make a request under the Freedom of Information Act as follows. Please provide me with paper copies of the following material:

1. A copy of the Executive Summary, Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) - DI55 Report, referred to in DIST letter, D/DIST/11/10 dated 4 December 2000

2. A copy of Volumes 1, 2 and 3 of the UAP Report, referenced in the DIST letter (1).

3. A copy of the terms of reference for the UAP Report, referenced in DI55/108/15 22 January 1997 as follows: D/DI55/108/15 dated 11 December 1996 and D/DI55/108/15 dated 16 November 1993.

4. With reference to request (2) please could you provide an advance summary of the title and table of contents of the three individual volumes. This will enable me to narrow my request should it exceed the £600 limit allowed under the FOIA.

5. Please could you also provide a list of all data fields possible for a UAP entry in the project database?

I understand these documents may be classified and will need to be downgraded before they can be released to me. I would be grateful therefore if you could provide me with an estimate of the likely timescale involved in this process. I look forward to hearing from you,
