Annex 171
Letter to the Parliamentary Commissioner
for Standards from Mr Bakshish S Attwal MBE, B S Attwall &
Co Ltd
RE: YOUR
LETTER DATED
8 NOVEMBER 2000
I have now received the proof you sent me regarding
the donation of £250, which I paid to the "premises
fund" on 9 January 1995.
I am enclosing herewith a photocopy of the cheque
book stub, of that date, for your perusal. You enabled me to trace
this payment by providing me with the date. With this information
we searched our records and found the cheque for £250. As
it happened a long time ago, it is not possible for me to remember
every payment that is made or received by my company by heart,
and I have no recollection of this one at all.
As far as the activities or functions of these
institutions: "The Premises Fund" and the "50 Club"
are concerned, I have no idea. However, I am sure you can obtain
this information from Mr Gratrix, whom you say is the chairman
of the Constituency Leicester East CLP. I have never been a member,
nor a patron of either "The Premises Fund" or the "50
Club".
