Dear Miss Davies,

A.C.F.O. Seager has instructed me directly to forward you a list of witnesses that Ff M Hyde intends to call at his prosecution hearing.

These are. Or are likely to be:
CFO M. Alcock
DCFO SA. Smith
ACFO K. Seager
DO C. Hodge
LFf P. Brown
Ff S. Wood
Ff I. Pettit
Ff M. Gilbert
T/ADO G. Saward
SubO J. Tiffen
ADO A. Campion
ADO E. Smith
Bearing in mind four of the above are also listed for the prosecution I am sure you will agree the list is a reasonable number.

As expressly prescribed in the Fire Service (Discipline) Regulations I ask you to write to the above named and inform them that they may be approached by Ff M Hyde or myself with a view to being interviewed prior to the hearing. This is not necessary for Ff Wood, Pettit, Gilbert or LFf Brown who have already assisted.

Having complied with the request for witnesses I would be grateful if you can without delay provide a date for the hearing. If not please can you explain why you are unable to do so.

Yours faithfully

A Wigglesworth BSc, MBA, GIFireE.
