Dear Sir or Madam,
a)
Please provide a list of all gifts, hospitality or donations
supplied to the Museum by Scientology
organisations, over the past 5 years.
By 'Scientology organisations', I mean organisations which promote,
recruit members for, or raise money for, Church of Scientology
Religious Education College Inc (a US corporation which has been
denied charitable status in the UK).
To the best of my knowledge a list of such organisations would
include:
Jive Aces / Church of Scientology Inc / Greenfields School /
Greenfields Educational Trust / Hubbard Foundation / ABLE / Applied
Scholastics International / Narconon / Criminon / The Way to
Happiness Foundation International / Church of Scientology
Religious Education College Inc / Office of Special Affairs (OSA) /
Sea Org / Youth for Human Rights International / Citizens
Commission on Human Rights (United Kingdom) Ltd
b)
Jive Aces performed at Duxford on 17 November 2006. Was the museum
aware of the link between Jive Aces and Scientology recruitment?
Does the museum undertake any background checks on performers?
Yours faithfully,
William Thackeray
