Graham, thanks for your comments. I have made some adjustments to the presentation and/or added comments below:-

Do we need to add to the last point on slide 2 that although we know of no instance when we will not get an error which will
indicate incompleteness we cannot guarantee this.

Tivoli event data is known to be incomplete, viz turn off TECs during event storms, gaps in the events sequences generated by
OMDB, there are occasional corrupt records within the events audit tracks

Do we need to add something about if we do find a gap we do not know what to do about this? If we do say this we will need to
say what we are doing to progress a solution to this or what the options are to tell POL that we can't provide data??
Added to slide 5

Slide 3 I think the second point should say 'prone to human error’ I am presuming if we automated this the error indicated in this
point would be removed.
It's not just human error, the process is not secure. But yes, that's my belief, partially automating will remove this point

Slide 3, why does the CP not suggest full automation or does it automate as much as possible in which case it should probably be
worded like that.
We cannot fully automate, we will always need someone to check unfiltered errors

Need a final slide saying what we want the audience to help with. I think we mentioned 2 things
1. Support the CP

2. Provide guidance on the immediate issue of the witness statements.

Item (1) added to slide 4, item (2) already there

Amended presentation attached. Please let me know if I havn't fully covered your comments, or if any others have been
identified.

Kind regards
Penny
