Letter to the Director of International
Education Connect Limited from the Chief Executive of the British
Council
Thank you for your letter of 4 August.[19]
As I stated in my note of June 03, the NAG report
does not suggest that the British Council competes unfairly but
does recommend that the British Council finds ways to demonstrate
more clearly to competitors and stakeholders that we do not compete
unfairly. This is a recommendation we welcome and we are now looking
at ways of providing this additional assurance. We will set out
the mechanism for doing so more clearly in our annual report and
online over the coming year.
In terms of your specific complaint, it appears
that we have reached an impasse. As you know, I consider the original
investigation of your complaint thorough and comprehensive. However,
as previously offered, I would look at it again if you can set
out the legal basis of your allegations. Without that, I do not
see how the British Council can usefully pursue your complaint
any further.
