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.

## Dear Dr Clarke

I writing to provide you with an update on the release of the DIS UAP report.

The whole report including Volumes 1, 2, 3 and the Executive Summary, (a final total of 465 pages) has now been examined and where applicable sensitive information has been removed. DIS staff and myself are currently making one final read through the documents to make sure that we have not missed any sensitive information and then we should be able to release the documents to you. We are aiming to send this information very soon and certainly before Easter. I apologise for the length of time this is taking, but I am sure you will be glad to hear that the careful consideration of this material is going to result in the release of the vast majority of the report, with a comparatively small amount of redaction. Where information is to be withheld, this will be explained in my covering letter.

I hope this is helpful.

Yours sincerely,
