. Mr He a ley expresed the opr lion that the remarks! attributed to the disgruntled members of the crew appeared to have carried more weight with the Council than Mr Healey’s official report. However, he was awaiting, an official communication from the council registering either approval or disapproval of his of coaching before making the statement refuting the attacks made on his ability.
