Dr. Alan Wall:

We did not. The answer to that is “No”. I got a copy of a letter which was a protected disclosure to the chancellor, which we acknowledged. To be clear about this, to get a protected disclosure sent to me which is marked “private and confidential” and says “for your information only” puts me in a kind of strange position in regard to how that is handled. We had a difficulty there and we had ongoing correspondence around another piece of correspondence that we had with the university.
