Letter sent to Mr Fred Fifer the Chairman of the Association 26/11/2004 with regards the accounts and other matters including concerning convicted paedophiles who were apparently still registered as members of the Association. We asked the Association to clarify matters, which to-date they have not done! Please note Fred Fifer contacted David Whelan directly on the 25th November 2005, one year later, by telephone following the Quarriers Media conference in Bath. Mr Fifer was informed in that conversation that we were dealing with the Association issues currently through Quarriers directly as they had failed to address the serious issues previously raised by us. David Whelan left open the opportunity of futher dialogue at a later date with the Association once issues were resolved with Quarriers (PDF format).
