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.

ENCLOSURE 22 NUMBER ## Dear Dr Clarke Thank you for the Christmas card. As promised I am writing before the Christmas break to provide you with an update on progress with your FOI request for the UAP Report. DIS staff have now examined Volumes 1, 2 and 3, and the Executive Summary, from a Security/technical perspective and the DIS FOI focal point is now checking the information from an FOI perspective. We hope this task will be completed in early to mid January 2006 and we should be in a position to release the information by the end of January. Although it was first thought that it may be possible to release the Executive Summary ahead of the full report, it has now been decided to look at all the papers together and have just one release. Early indications are that most of these documents are likely to be released. I apologise for the length of time this is taking, but we are keen to release as much of the report as possible and great care needs to be taken to consider each document. I will, of course, contact you as soon as I know anything more definite about when and how this information will be released. In the meantime, if you have any questions, please e-mail me or give me a call. With best wishes for a happy Christmas.
