Dear ###

We write further to your request which was received on 28 September 2020 and which states:

"We seek the publication of the business case for the refurbishment of the steam engine Mannin."

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance the public authority does not hold the information that you have requested. We would refer you to the attached earlier FOI response which explains that the Department is still evaluating the actions required for this engine and therefore no business case has yet been written.

Please quote the reference number 1489135 in any future communications.
