Original Abstract Submitted

A communications device acting as a relay device receives a request for system information from another communications device via a sidelink interface between the communications device and the other communications device. The communications device acts as a relay device for the other communications device as a remote device, via which relay device the remote device can transmit data to or receive data from a radio network infrastructure equipment of a wireless communications network. The infrastructure equipment may be a first infrastructure equipment which forms a first cell of the wireless communications network via which the relay device can transmit the data to or receive the data from the wireless communications network.
