I am writing to express disappointment that you have not yet Buen fit to reply to my letter of 16 May on the Auckland Task Force. You queried my authority to write this, which I found insulting, but afters reply to that query on 28 May from the President of this Association you have had over 8 month to reply and have not done so.

While apprecisting that M.P.'s have very busy lives, we had hoped from your strong public support for the Task Force you knew something about the subject and would be prepared to share this with us. From your failure to answer we can conclude either that you know very little about Task Force and are merely using ti as a convenient political football, or that the Acord report on the Task Force which we referred you to is in fact an accurate analysis of the situation and your failure to reply indicates a realisation of your mistake in this matter.

Would you care to suggest which of these conclusions is more correct?
