Thread Name: Council Bans Morris Part 2
Subject: RE: Council Bans Morris Part 2
I've spoken to the chambers of Susanna Fitzgerald, and I also have (from contacts) a hard copy of the article cited above. She is on hols now but I have asked for electronic copies of the article and indeed of a longer article that is referred to in her said article. I have also asked for permission to post the articles here.

The articles are not on the chambers website www.oeclaw.co.uk, nor on Susanna Fitzgerald's pages there, but you may want to have a look.

Once the long vacation is over, Magrath and Sham, you may wish to get in touch with her and ask if she would do some pro bono work on your campaign. I do not suggest suing anyone, but if she were preapred to produce an opinion addressing the Human Rights angle of restrictions in PEL licensing as affecting traditional song, music, and dance, you might have something to take up with the Home Office.

If you can PM me the address of Weymouth and Portland I am prepared to write to them on my solicitor's notepaper to ask for copies of the case law referred to in the report you object to. You may of course find that the cases do establish what they say...
