The CCRC has asked POL to preserve material. But the accusation will be that POL are asking Second Sight to destroy
information. Because once Second Sight’s contract is terminated they can’t hold on to confidential info, so they'll
either need to return it to the information owner or destroy it.

Thanks Andrew — I am preparing a note for the Minister for today’s box in which I am proposing she writes to Mr
Bridgen so I will include a response to these accusations in that response. The short answer is that Post Office have
already committed on several occasions, including to the BIS Select Committee, that they will not destroy
documentation relating to this matter.

Dear Baroness Neville-Rolfe,
Further to our meeting yesterday, I remain very concerned about the Post Office’s reluctance to allow questioning of
Second Sight following their forensic investigation into this matter. I have grave fears that during the summer recess,
the Post Office will request that Second Sight destroy documentation which could potentially expose the failings that I
and many colleagues believe exist with the Horizon systems and the ensuing prosecutions. I would therefore request
that you take whatever steps you can to ensure that the Post Office do not order any action to Second Sight to destroy
documents documents, so should for instance the BIS Select Committee choose to investigate this matter, they will be
able to do so with all the Second Sight investigation papers available.
Kind Regards,
Andrew Bridgen
