Subject: Re: Letter of Complaint

Hello Eoghan,

As we have already discussed, Hub Management Committee made a decision
to allocate a certain amount of the notice board to RAGWEEK, an event
which all students can get involved in. On the day in question, I spoke
with the Drama Committee and they were happy that their posters were
only being moved to the side. I have no reason to believe that now they
have changed their mind.

As regards the Henry Grattan notice board, I can assure you that no
member of the events team or union exec took down any drama posters. As
you know, posters are always being taken down by students - especially
the nice ones! What probably happened then is that an events crew member
was putting up posters all over campus and saw a space on the drama
board. Unless they are a society member, they would not have known that
that board is specifically for drama as there is no sign.

I also wanted to ask the committee what the situation is with the paint
that was spilled on the floor of the venue. The Students' Union has
received a quote for the repairs and it will cost €500. As tech officer
for drama, could you find out when this drama will be able to pay this?
As we need to get it cleaned as soon as possible.

Many thanks,
Sarah Farrell
