FIFTH WITNESS STATEMENT OF GARETH IDRIS JENKINS

I, Gareth Idris Jenkins, will say as follows:

1. I make this fifth witness statement further to those previously given by me to
the Inquiry in respect of its Phases 3, 4 and 5. Those statements were dated
6 February 2023, 1 June 2023 (in respect of Phase 3), 21 March 2024 (Phase
4) and 29 April 2024 (Phase 5).

2. I am due to give oral evidence to the Inquiry on 25 — 28 June 2024, having
been postponed (as the Inquiry is aware) firstly from 6 - 7 July 2023 and
secondly from 30 November — 6 December 2023.

3. During the course of reviewing my previous written statements from 2023 and
2024, I have come across some corrections which I would like to make, and
which I wish to bring to the Inquiry’s attention in advance. I have produced
these via a further witness statement in order to save the Inquiry time on 25
June 2024 and in order that Core Participants have advance notice of the

changes which I wish to make.
