Sorry this is my mistake — I completely forgot to phone Rod about the RMG audit reports.
Attached is a draft letter to Freeths. My plan (which needs some help from Rod is):
« Rod calls RMG legal and confirms that they won't give disclosure of the documents. If so, Rod warns them
that we are going to jointly ask with the Claimants that the Judge makes an order for third party disclosure.
The order should be limited to pre-2011 annual audit reports of Horizon produced by Ernst & Young, which
they are able to locate under a reasonable and proportionate search. It would be helpful if RMG could confirm
how long it would take them to find the documents.
« We need to work out how to deal with the costs of the third party disclsoure — I think they should be borne by
the Cs, but not sure if the joint approach to the judge causes an issue with this.
e Once this has been set up we can then send the attached letter to Freeths.
Sorry and let me know if you want me to phone Rod.
Thanks
A
