All agreement with Cameroon relating to defence, support to the Cameroonian military, training of the Cameroonian military and/or weapon sales to them.
I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.
This request should be properly classified as a media request. I am a freelance investigative reporter covering covering East and Central Africa, with a particular focus on business, corruption, natural resources, land and social issues. I have a strong likelihood of publishing news articles based on information released in response to this request. I have previously been published in Le Monde Afrique, IRIN News, Sydney Morning Herald, African Arguments and others. The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
If you have questions about my media classification, please let me know and I'm happy to address them.
In the event that fees cannot be waived, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filed electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not, and I would like text-searchable documents.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.
Best regards,
Emmanuel Freudenthal

Example of request 2: I will like to request the “Water Study” (NAME OF DOCUMENTS) that was completed by “WATER COMPANY X” (WHO conducted the study,who or what office has the documents).

Hope you find the examples provided above helpful in submitting the request.

Hello,
I assume that you have a centralised place where formal agreements with other nations are kept. Could you confirm whether that's the case or not?
Thanks,

Dear Mr. Freudenthal,
We received your Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request dated 31 May 2019, for:
"All agreement with Cameroon relating to defence, support to the Cameroonian military, training of the Cameroonian military and/or weapon sales to them."
Due to our organization having a significant number of pending FOIA requests, we have been unable to process your request within the statutory 20 workdays. To ensure all requesters are properly served in the order their requests were received, we have instituted multitrack processing of requests. Based on the information you provided, we have placed your request in the complex track and have assigned FOIA Case Number 2019-03640-F to identify your request.

We will strive to provide an update between 90 and 120 days. Our policy is to process requests within their respective tracks in the order in which they were received. We do process each FOIA request as quickly as possible, however delayed responses can be expected.
