D J Freeman
43 Fetter Lane London EC4A 1JU. 23 March 2001 Your ref
SVN/CG2/0113119999 Dear Mr Nabi, Thank you for your letter, and enclosed ‘bundle’, of the 21 March 2001. You
state: ‘Please
find enclosed a bundle of our clients disclosure in response to your request
under the Data Protection Act 1998 made in your letter of 2 February 2001.’ Who precisely are
Freeman’s ‘clients’- ‘enclosed a bundle of our clients
disclosure’? Please state
precisely who they are. Which particular
Shell, and/or other company/firm and/or outfit, supplied and/or forwarded the
said ‘bundle’ of documents? Please
state precisely who they are. My request, made under the Data Protection Act 1998 (as
amended March 2000), was for all copies
of all personal and other data concerning myself, held on computer and/or paper
by any member, or associate, of the Royal Dutch/Shell Group.
The
documents forwarded do not even represent ‘a sample’ of all documents/records,
data, correspondence concerning myself held on computer and/or paper by any member, or
associate, of the Royal Dutch/Shell Group.
Consequently, advise whether, or not, the Royal Dutch Shell
Group maintains that it has sent all personal, and other documents/records,
data, correspondence concerning myself held on computer and/or paper by any member, or
associate, of the Royal Dutch/Shell Group- as per my request.
If Royal Dutch/Shell maintains that the sent ‘bundle of
documents’ is the full, exhaustive and complete list of all personal, and
other documents/records, data, correspondence concerning
myself held on computer and/or paper by any member, or associate, of the Royal
Dutch/Shell Group, forward the name of the Shell individual, and/or individuals
stating this. In addition please
forward an authorised statement that no ‘culling’, ‘shredding’,
‘withholding’ or ‘transferring’ of documents has been authorised, and/or
known by the any member of the Royal Dutch/Shell Group and/or
Associate/Associates and/or any ‘hired help’ with regard to myself and Shell
Thornton/ nuclear crimes issue. Precisely
what ‘Exemption’
sections of the Data Protection Act have Shell/Freeman’s invoked?
With particular reference to section: 28. - (1) Personal data are exempt from any of the provisions of-
(b) Parts II, III and V, and if the exemption from that provision is required for the purpose of safeguarding national security if the exemption from that provision is required for the purpose of safeguarding national security.
It ‘just’ so happened that Shell’s Legal Head (a mere
day before ‘your’ letter) wrote- ‘should you (J Dyer)
or we (Shell),
ultimately decide to litigate’-it struck me, at the time, as most peculiar as Shell have
run a proverbial mile from mentioning anything to do with its empty ‘sue’,
threats –I now understand why Shell’s Legal Head, was instructed to forward
the ‘decide
to litigate’
lie. Consequent, Freeman’s had
then to be called in to write and forward the said ‘bundle’ of documents, in
place of Shell’s legal head, who had previously been personally
corresponding/dealing with my Data Protection request!
Consequently, please confirm whether, or not, Freeman/Shell
have invoked section 35: 35. - Disclosures
required by law or made in connection with legal proceedings etc.
(1)
Personal data are exempt from the non-disclosure provisions where the
disclosure is required by or under any enactment, by any rule of law or by the
order of a court. (2)
Personal data are exempt from the non-disclosure provisions where the
disclosure is necessary- (a) for the purpose of, or in
connection with, any legal proceedings (including prospective legal
proceedings), or (b) for the purpose of obtaining legal
advice, or is otherwise necessary for the purposes of establishing, exercising
or defending legal rights. Please state what, if any, of section 35 has been invoked. Please state that no documents/computer records etc have
been withheld on legal semantic grounds. The
fact that Shell and its lawyer’s brief letter was so constructed ‘Please find enclosed a bundle of our clients
disclosure…’ conclusively
demonstrates that
only a lawyers committee could have agreed the crafted gobbledegook. Please state whether, or not, any files, documents, records, data, and/or correspondence
has been transferred to any member, or associate, of the Royal Dutch/Shell
Group, with particular reference to those outside of the United Kingdom-thereby
falling outside of the UK Data Protection Act.
Please further confirm (any?) the ‘code’ names assigned and/or used
with regard to myself and/or the Shell Thornton nuclear dumping crimes issue. Yours sincerely, John Dyer. |
