I acknowledge receipt of your letter of 29th September and regret the delay in replying thereto. The up to date position is that I am still waiting to hear from Counsel to enable me to file my report in this matter.
However, you are probably aware that Mr. Brian Hall will be taking over as Official Solicitor and he will be dealing with the matter in due course.

Yours faithfully,
P J Rankin
Deputy Official Solicitor
