Dear Information,

The Burnham Inquiry reported that a range of concerns, including allegations of war crimes, were raised with them but were found to be outside of the scope of the inquiry and proposed to be dealt with by other processes.

Based on your feedback, it would appear that no further reviews have been undertaken to investigate these concerns. If not, please confirm this. If there have been reviews, including courts of inquiry, please provide those reviews.

Yours sincerely,

Rodney Parsons
