Dear Mr Constable,
Mitre House Management Limited
I acknowledge receipt of your letters dated 18,25, 27 and 28 May, and your latest letter dated 10 June.
As you seem so confident that you have not misused the leaseholders funds, may I, for the last time, ask you to provide the relevant invoices we have requested.
(reply) If my 200 odd pages of reply correspondence with supporting evidence hasn’t convinced you we have not misused leaseholder’s funds, nothing will, including your requested perusal of the relevant invoices which total £105,877.
References to AR Lawrence’s Tony White’s Witness Statement (admittedly not communicated to me until late today) simply confirms in some useful detail what you have been told (with one or two discrepancies further explained below), and exactly what was communicated to lessees 2012-2014, and exactly what was posted on our website and exactly as described in detail in our correspondence since your letter of 23 March 2016
The one or two discrepancies we take umbrage with are as follows:
a) reference to avoiding/not paying/delaying the snagging final invoice of £1590 odd. Both the Contractor and our Surveyor were all simply awaiting dry weather as the main works entailed the re-silvering on the roof...this can be reconfirmed with Tony White and or our Surveyor with whom I only spoke with him about it a month or two ago! I replied to requests for payment (only one) in the same way as described above it was fully accepted as being true.....
b) reference to not paying our Electrician, Nigel Brooks. I think it can be established and confirmed by Tony White that AR Lawrence were so impressed with our Electricians, that they purloined them leaving us high and dry. Our extensive new electrics were finished off by our backup sparks with supporting invoices obviously. Nigel Brooks accepted our explanation (I am presuming) as we did not hear back following his request for final part payment in April 2016 – and yes I have full supporting evidence.
