As you know, should the A.A. elect not to refer the matter to the CPS, you would of course have a right of
           appeal to the IPCC along those lines.

           If you have any questions for me please do let me know.

           Kind regards

           Subject: Our meeting today.

           Good Afternoon Lorraine,

           Thank you for taking the team to meet with this afternoon, I found our meeting very useful in enabling me to
           better understand your complaint.

           To confirm, the first thing I shall consider is a referral to the CPS. I shall begin by examining what
           consideration was given to such a referral by the previous investigator, Jeannette Riley.

           Under the legislation that governs police complaints it is possible to seek guidance from the CPS where there
           is an indication that a criminal offence may have been committed, it is this test that I shall apply.

           Leaving the CPS issue aside for a moment  and the possibility of criminal charges, I acknowledge your request
           to have sight of the PC Geoghegan’s MG11 and notebook. Such a disclosure can be made under Schedule 3 of
           the Police Reform Act 2002. I shall revisit this request once the possibility of a CPS referral has been
           addressed. However, I fully intend to comply with such a request, subject to necessary redactions.

           Going forward, In addition the your original points of complaint I shall also attempt to provide a clear
           explanation for the issues surrounding the misconduct meeting occurring before you had the opportunity to
           appeal to the IPCC. As I stated to you earlier today, the MPS can only apologise for this oversight.

           Additionally, as agreed, if you could send me Dean’s details, or forward mine to him, that would be very much
           appreciated.

           Of course, I’ll keep you updated every step of the away.

           If you’ve any questions in the meantime please do get in touch.

           Kind regards
