Subject: firm lawyerly nonanswer
Kotz wanted to meet with me while I was in Washington to testify. She gave him a firm lawyerly nonanswer, telling him he would absolutely consider it. But almost immediately she ended her trip and returned to Boston.

чёткий формальный ответ

non-answer
The act of providing an reply to a question that does not give a any physical or concrete information. The non-answer dances around a subject so well that the end result is a jumble of words that say nothing. Politicians excel at non-answers.

по русски, канцелярским языком, это называется "отписка". Но, конечно, если ответ был письменный.
