Dear Max,

I am writing to inform you that it was agreed at the Wales Green Party
Council meeting on Saturday to suspend you from your position as
Wales Green Party Member’s Newsletter Editor. This decision was
taken in line with procedures laid down in the England and Wales
Constitution.
As you were present for most of the discussion regarding this issue, you
are well aware of the areas of concern to WGPC members.
In short, the first newsletter included quotes and a link to a non Green
Party website which inaccurately reported an internal disciplinary
procedure carried out late last year.  
The second newsletter contained a link to what you knew to be a false
blog making unsubstantiated allegations against one of the candidates
currently standing for selection to the Wales Euro Elections list.
Consequently, the selection procedure has had to be suspended at
great cost and inconvenience to the party.
WGPC also felt that the inclusion of an anonymous letter relating to the
same candidate was unfair, particularly at this time.  Members
feel that there is the potential for your actions to bring the party
into disrepute if, indeed that hasn’t happened already.  
The suspension takes immediate effect.
You should now destroy your copy of the membership list and I would like
to remind you that, under the Data Protection Act 1998 and Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003, continued use of the membership list is a criminal offence.
Yours sincerely,

Ann Were

General Secretary
Wales Green Party 
 
Ann Were.
