Dear Professor Gale

DR DAVID RINDOS

Thank you for your letter of 22 June in response to my request for information and commentary on Dr Rindos' allegations that the answers to Parliamentary Questions provided by the Minister were inaccurate and misleading.

Unfortunately, it is not satisfactory that your response has not replied 'to Dr Rindos' allegations in detail, but rather in general.' The Minister may well be put in the situation where he has to respond to the detail of Dr Rindos' allegations. It is my understanding that the document provided by Dr Rindos may well have been sent to other Members of Parliament to stimulate further questioning. If this is the case it is not possible for the Minister to avoid responding should such questioning proceed.

I would be grateful for a more detailed and considered reply to the allegations made by Dr Rindos.

Your sincerely

/signed/
Professor G. V. Stanley
Chief Executive OFficer
