4. Information: EFA e-bulletin publication arrangements - summer 2016
We will continue to publish the e-bulletin weekly during July. The last weekly edition will be Thursday 28 July.
During August we will publish on a fortnightly basis. The dates of issues will be:

We will operate a reduced e-bulletin schedule during the summer as there is reduced business activity. If we have no updates for customers we will not issue an e-bulletin. In this incidence we will put a notification on the e-bulletin web page.
Customers can be reassured that for any business critical or urgent items for attention which do not fall within the above timescales, we will contact you directly or issue an extraordinary e-bulletin.
