                                   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.
