Officials from my Department and the Department of Foreign Affairs met the person in question on 17 February 2006. The meeting discussed the background to the murder and all of the person's concerns, both about the murder and how the matter has been dealt with since. It also discussed the various contacts the person has had with others who might be of assistance to him. Arising from the meeting, I have agreed to meet the person in question. My office has contacted him to make the necessary arrangements.
