Dear Sir or Madam,
In the Chairman and CEO's statement on page 8 of their 2008 Annual
Report issued today Phorm says
"Specifically, the Department for Business Innovation and Skills
(formerly BERR) has confirmed that Phorm's system is capable of
being operated in a lawful, appropriate and transparent fashion."

ever given such an assurance?
2. What statements have the Department for Business Innovation and
Skills or BERR made to Phorm or its predecessor 121media about the
