Is it grammatically correct to write.

We do not want to provide this information to them as we see it is still at an early stage to provide all these information to them.

or it is still an early stage (without proposition at infront of an early stage). Thanks

Hi David

Your sentence is awkwardly worded. Here are a few suggestions:

- Because our reseach is still at an early stage, we do not want to provide them with any information/details yet.

- It is still too early a stage to provide them with this information.

- We would rather not provide them with this information at such an early stage.
