Response
In accordance with the Act our response is provided below;
From our preliminary assessment, we estimate that compliance
with your request would exceed the appropriate costs limit under
section 12 of the Freedom of information Act 2000. This is
currently £450. To identify whether or not we hold information
relevant to this request would involve a manual search of all DNA
files which would run into many thousands. We are therefore unable
confirm or deny that we actually hold the information requested
