00:00In the middle of March, I have a meeting with Sir Ollie and a senior member of his team.
00:07And this is after the point that I've been told that this summary document exists.
00:12I specifically ask to see this document in any decision-making audit trail around those judgments at the time.
00:23It was made clear to me that that information would not be forthcoming.
00:27Who made it clear to you?
00:28Sir Ollie.
00:30Right. And why?
00:33I suppose I'd go back to, in the actual meeting, the specific reasons were not discussed.
00:40But I'd go back to the context at the time was there was a lot of back-and-forth discussion
00:46about the status of how we would treat vetting information.
00:50I'd advised the Prime Minister that I would give him detailed advice once I'd seen the relevant documentation.
