    Management representations no longer exist! They were re-named by the clarity project and are now called “written representations” In fact, oral representations are ( as we used to say in Manchester ) “not worth the paper they are written on”

    @maazqarni
    the correct term is “more reliable source of information”

    I’m not sure that that would have cost maazqarni a mark. I sincerely doubt that the markers would be so pedantic as to insist upon such precision, but thank you for your input
