Thanks Elisa.
in terms of the doc’s, let's wait to see if Mr Holt is a claimant (which seems likely). He can then get documents as part of
the disclosure process, i.e. as coordinated in the Group Action as a whole and not on a piecemeal basis.
if he’s not a claimant, then we can refuse to provide the information giving reasonable grounds for the refusal (e.g. time
and cost given questionable relevance etc).
The equipment removal is a BAU operational matter which can be dealt with separately.
David - can you please start lining this up so that it doesn’t become a satellite issue which drains resources {as it has
done in some other cases).
Thanks, Rod

David
We received a letter from Freeths at the end of last week regarding this branch disputing the termination and seeking
various documents and information. As you know, Mr Holt's contract was terminated in April so it has taken them quite
some time to respond on this. I had intended to draft a short response to say that the contract had now been terminated
and Mr Holt no longer had any contractual rights to documents.
The letter also mentions that Mr Holt would like the equipment at the branch removed and sought a list of dates that PO
could attend for removal. Would you be able to give me a list of dates and I can include this in our response?
Kind regards,
Elisa

Hi Rodric
Could you please advise on the following?
The Postmaster at Glenmoriston Mr. Frank Holt was originally suspended from his contract to provide PO
services back on 11" Sept 2014. He then went into litigation and is now being advised by Freeth’s that
any contact between POL and himself can only be done so via Solicitors.
Mr. Holt has now formally been served 3 months’ notice of termination (see attached) of contract which
expired on 20" July 2017.
las the Network Operations manager have been asked by the business to arrange the removal of Post
Office equipment (Horizon, Paystation and Scales).
When I contacted Mr. Holt he was pleasant enough but did advise that any formal arrangements would
need to be communicated via Freeth’s for the removal of POL equipment.
Regards
