To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs when he plans to respond to the letter from the hon. Member for West Chelmsford of 6 April 2009 on his constituent, Ms Daphne Green of Chelmsford; and what the reason is for the time taken to reply. (284782)

I refer the hon. Member to my answer of 2 July 2009, Official Report, column 386W. The reason for the delay in replying was the need to obtain legal advice for the response.
