Dear Mr Gillespie,
On 12th February 1999 I made a reasonable request in person to Divisional Officer Colin Hodge for the return of a FBU health and safety document given to him some months earlier. The document is required for matters concerned with 1502020/1998. The relevant document being a safety audit carried on Lowestoft fire safety accommodation on or around 2nd June 1998.
As you are no doubt aware the document is signed by the employees safety representative. ADO Eric Smith JP. Furthermore and again as you are no doubt aware the content is in complete contradiction to your legally stated position re the democratically appointed trade union safety representative for Lowestoft fire station.
Returning to the request made to Divisional Officer Colin Hodge. He was his usual foul and abusive type in reply. Adding that he could not comply because he ‘no longer has access to the document and copies are in the hands of yourself and the brigade prosecuting officer’. Further adding that if he could be bothered he would take it up with the brigade prosecuting officer. Of course I have already made 8 other reasonable requests for disclosure with the brigade prosecuting officer on another matter. Indeed he seems to have serious propensity toward ignoring normal legal protocol and procedure.
In consequence, If you don’t mind, I would like to be furnished with the aforementioned articles without delay.
Yours sincerely
