Letter from M. E. G. Fogden to Mr. Andrew Mackinlay, dated 2 May 1995:
The Secretary of State has asked me to reply to your question regarding the manufacturer's instructions for the application of Stapro Insecticide.The contractor employed to undertake the spraying at Grays Unemployment Benefit Office on 8 October 1991 has now advised us orally that the chemical used was not a Stapro Insecticide, as he originally told us. He has further advised that any enquiries relation to this operation should be directed to his solicitor, Mr. Michael Wright of Thompson, Smith and Poxon, 4/5 North Hill, Colchester, Essex, CO1 1EB.You will understand that, given these circumstances, the information relating to Stapro would be inappropriate.
