Hi Anusha,

 

Apologies for the delay in responding. From what I understand you have talked to Gordon and will be talking to him further in the future. He asked me to send on the report attached. Hopefully between the report and your conversations with Gordon we can answer as many of your questions as possible.

 

Please let me know if you require anything else.

 

Regards,
