WITHOUT PREJUDICE

The Chairman
Manorbier Community Council

Further to the finalisation of the small claim re: ICT Marketing Ltd and Manorbier Community Council I would like to inform you that I will be making a claim for damages for Defamation by Manorbier Community Council as a body as well as individual councillors.

I am considering a claim for Libel and slander in this respect.

A claim will take the form of damages to both my personal reputation and that of ICT Marketing Ltd which has resulted in a considerable loss of business to ICT Marketing Ltd as well as emotional anxiety and financial losses to me personally.

I am considering a claim of £250,000 in the light of tangible business to the value of £50,000 per annum that has been lost as a result of this case.

I am further considering a claim of £50,000 for damage to my personal reputation.

I am prepared to enter into negotiations in order to resolve this matter and await your response.

Perhaps you would be kind enough to respond to this email within 14 days.

I will be taking legal advice on this matter and will let you know in due course who will be a acting on my behalf.

Yours sincerely

Debbie Garside
Managing Director
ICT Marketing
