§ Mr. DismoreTo ask the Attorney-General if he will place in the Library copies of the witness statements disclosed by the respondent in the case of Hayesv. Attorney General. [88017]
§ Mr. DismoreTo ask the Attorney-General if he will list the documents disclosed by the respondent in the case of Hayes v. Attorney General and place copies in the Library. [88018]
The Attorney-GeneralNo. The documents were disclosed to the applicant only for the purposes of the proceedings in the employment tribunal, where the interests of justice required their disclosure. Many of the documents contain information about third parties which was imparted to me and to others in confidence. I believe that it would be inappropriate to disclose them further. It was not necessary to compile a list of the documents disclosed in the case and to publish a full list now would also breach the confidences referred to above.
