These Reports are confidential, and, by agreement reached on the National Whitley Council, are not communicated to individual officers except in the case of a marking which reflects upon the officer concerned. To give the particulars asked for would tend to prejudice the confidential nature of the Reports, and I regret, therefore, that I am not in a position to give them.
