Keith Smith

Inspector for the Humberhead Windfarms Public Inquiry

During the inquiry all the administrative arrangements were handled by the Programme Officer of Persona Associates. It is appropriate that I record here the appreciation of all participants for his work and contribution to the smooth running of the inquiry.

Rupert Warren

Landmark Chambers

The HA would like to record its thanks for (as usual) invaluable assistance.

Dr Mark Tyrer

Friends of the South Pennines

Thank you for all your hard work and forbearance with our mistakes and amateurism. Your job to me seems to require the patience of a saint and I was impressed by your boundless, even-tempered patience.

Thomas Hill QC

Northumberland Public Inquiry

May I also take this opportunity to thank you for your very considerable assistance in ensuring the smooth running of the inquiry and in accommodating the various demands made of you (and on the programme) in such an efficient and good-humoured way. I know that my clerks have also been extremely grateful in this regard.

Persona Associates have been the Programme Officer at four of my major inquiries in the last five years and when I have any choice at all they are by far my first choice. They are pleasant, efficient, and proactive and for each of the large inquiries of eight days or more, an efficient Programme Officer is absolutely essential. I would recommend them unhesitatingly!
