Their attention has been directed to a letter posted on the RightOn Canada website ^ at: http://www.rightoncanada.ca/?p=2316 and headlined: "Over 300 scientists and organisations from 36 countries condemn efforts of the asbestos industry to promote use of asbestos in India. The letter purports to have been signed by "Dr. Klaus-Peter Saake, Leitender Werkarzt, Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft K-SG-7 Gesundheitswesen, Salzgitter, Germany". We are instructed that Dr. Saake did not sign this letter nor did he authorize anyone to do so on his behalf. He is at a loss to know how his name came to be associated with this campaign. We therefore require your specific advice of the basis upon which you identified Dr. Saake as a signatory of the letter. Copies of any correspondence or other documents or communications you received in this connection would be appreciated. We anticipate your prompt response.
