To search for Defence Equipment and Support (DE&S) FOI responses, you need to:
- visit the MOD publications list
- type “DE&S” in the ‘Contains’ box which appears on the left hand side of the page. This will list pages, by week, upon which FOI responses from DE&S can be found
- select one of the pages titled “FOI responses released by MOD: week commencing…” and look in the ‘Unique reference’ field for each file to find the responses released by DE&S
- use the ‘find’ option on your keyboard. (For example on a PC press the ‘Ctrl’ and then ‘F’, if using a Mac press ‘cmd’ and then ‘F’) a separate dialog box will appear
- you will then need to type ‘DE&S’ to search through the list of response documents quickly
