Dear Mr Williams,

I acknowledge your reply of 17th June to my enquiry regarding financing of the CPZ.

I note that you are requesting an extension to the statutory 20 days permitted for a reply to be submitted.

Please will you inform me of the additional number of days within which you are able to make a reply. As you already have a reply letter in draft, requiring only final checking, I would not expect this additional time to be very great.

Thank you for your attention to this matter of obvious public interest.

Yours sincerely,

Percy Roland.
