Amy,

Thank you for confirming receipt and for confirming that the revised report
dated 10 August 2026 will be treated as the operative version in place of
the previous edition.

I appreciate that you need to consult colleagues and that annual leave may
affect the timetable. Friday 28 August is noted.

See attached an A.I analysis of the evidence and chronology I hold. Which
might assist your departments internal review of this matter too.

I look forward to receiving the substantive response when you return.

Regards,


Sion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)
