[*FX* polite cough] Let's just hope that the solicitor concerned does not
subscribe to this list.
Anyway, regardless of whether you decide to officially disclose this
information, you may wish to notify any persons whom you might reasonably
suspect to be the subjects of the solictor's enquiry that such an enquiry
has been made of the University. Who knows, they may wish to respond
directly to the solictor?
