Evidence provided: Telephone note, email and attendance note. Outline how the evidence demonstrates you meet the outcome Methods of communication used: In the attendance/telephone note examples, witness statements were taken, once by telephone as this was the most efficient method with which to communicate with the Doctor and once by face to face meeting as this was considered more appropriate for this witness. Email was chosen to notify of the date, time and items for discussion at a meeting with a witness. Why each was the most effective method of communication: The face to face meeting enabled me to ensure the witness fully understood the procedure and was able to feel comfortable giving their statement. In the telephone witness statement, the doctor was busy and more familiar with the procedure and therefore was comfortable with a telephone meeting. The email was chosen to communicate the date, time and overview of the meeting as it was not necessary to explain detail and forms a written record to which both parties could refer back to if necessary.

represent the client’s wishes rather than what I think would be the best course of action.

I advised the client to discuss this with the surveyor and also the possible options available to the client in this case. Legal advice provided: I advised the client that the lack of regulations may mean that the garage is unsafe. I advised that the client could ask for the garage to be inspected by the appropriate person or take an indemnity policy to cover the situation where the garage was not safe.
