Tom, It might be sensible to check with us directly before posting. We *have
* been preparing but need to get a lot of consensus even for a 'short
response'. I think your email was unfair to Chris and a little rude.
Please assume good faith.
Phone me if you want more background.

It doesn't take two working days to prepare a
short response saying that
the charity is now reviewing the report. In fact, that could have been
prepared in advance, since it is the same regardless of the contents. It is
extremely premature to be commenting on the contents to the press before
we've had any discussion about it.
Publish the report now. You've had plenty of time. You're supposed to be
running an organisation that prides itself on being transparent.

(deadline) - Final report
- this is expected by the end of this week and
will be published
promptly
(not necessarily immediately) when we get it.
Why won't you publish it immeadiately?
So that we have a chance to prepare responses for any media inquiries
that might result from it. As I say, we will be prompt about it, and I also
want to make sure there is a chance for the community to review the
findings before our board meeting on the 9th. Someone from Compass
Partnership will be attending that meeting, so if there are any questions
or clarifications from the community, we can ask them then.
Hope this make sense,
Chris
