Unless you need further information from them to help you identify what
information they are seeking, I would advise against asking them for
information about their request.
You are not entitled to it and it is likely to be seen as unhelpful.

Subject: Re: [data-protection] Handling a SAR outside the Act
Sensitivity: Confidential
Tim,
Thank you for your reply. It is clear to me that the member intends for
this to be actioned under the Act in that they ask:
"I would like to make a "Subject Access Request" under section 7(1) of
the 1998 Data Protection Act. Please could you provide me with complete
disclosure of any information concerning me (if you have any) that I am
entitled to view under the provision of the aforementioned act."
I think my main concern is should we be contacting the member to ask the
reason for their SAR, or could this be considered intrusive to their
privacy?
