Committee operated the admission in your letter of 19 March that evidence waspresented to the Committee causes our client very considerable concern. Pleaseprovide a clear written explanation as to who gave evidence before or to theCommittee, the nature of that evidence and copies of all documents and other materialdisclosed to the Committee.5.In these circumstances the SFA Board has denied our client the opportunity of understanding the case that he has to meet, has refused to provide him with theevidence on which the SFA Board relies in asserting that our client is not a fit andproper person within the meaning of Article 10.2 and has instead chosen to publish it'sfinding that our client is not a fit and proper person in circumstances where he has beenafforded no opportunity of answering the case against him.6.The reference in the third paragraph of your letter of 9 March 2012, that theIndependent Committee "
was of the opinion that there is prima facie evidence that youare not a fit and proper person
" suggests that the matter has been pre-determined.That concern is confirmed when your statement published on 8 March 2012 atwww.telegraph.co.uk"
Craig Whyte is not a fit and proper person
to own Rangers saysScottish FA"
is considered. That article referred specifically to a statement issued byyou which stated, amongst other things:-"
Principally it is the belief of the Board taking into account the prima facie evidence presented today, that Mr Craig Whyte is not considered to be a fit and proper person to hold a position within association football
".7.That statement issued by you entirely undermines what you said in your letter of 9March and serves as clear evidence that the SFA Board had in fact already made adetermination on this issue at the time you wrote that letter which is entirely at odds andcontradicts your approach at the private dinner with our client late last year. It alsocontradicts what you say in your letter of 19 March 2012, that the Board will consider this issue on 5 April 2012. In fact the Board, as evidenced by your own statement, hadalready considered this issue, made a determination on it and published a statementsetting out the result of that determination.Next StepsFor the avoidance of doubt, our client wishes to be afforded the opportunity of answering theallegations which appear to have been made against him in the Independent Committee's Reportwhich the SFA Board has so far refused to disclose to him. In those circumstances we requireimmediate disclosure of the following:1.An entire copy of the Independent Committee's Report including the Committee's termsof reference,2.Details of the identity of those who gave evidence before the Committee and the natureand content of their evidence3.Copies of all statements, reports and other material placed before the Committee,
