    Dear Geoff

    Thank- you for your letter of 9`f' July. I ha-~e discussed the matter with Greg Dyke as
    Editor-in-Chief Although I did not originally show him the name contained in your
    letter, I am sure he will have now seen the name in most of this morning's
    newspapers .

    The BBC wi11 not be making any more comments about, or responding to any claims
    concerning, the identity of Andrew Gilligan's source for his story on the Today
    programme on May 29, or the identity of Susan Watts' source for her story on
    Ne'~vsnight on 2na June

    Yours si3Acerely
