Well that is just a letter and not an affidavit.  It has not evidential value, maybe we shouldn't create problems out of nothing really.  If the instructions or the purpose why this person handed over the letter was just that the letter should be read to register their views, the letter can be read.  But that does not mean that we are going to accept the contents thereof as the truth necessarily because it's not an affidavit, and you should see it in that light, because I hear that you say that, you talk of instructions from your clients , what their attitude will be to the contents and the like, but please remember that this is not an affidavit, it's just a letter and if the author of the letter's intention was that that letter should just be read and her views be registered, it can be done.  We don't have to, I suppose you don't for a moment think of calling the applicants again and putting the contents of the letter to them again and all that sort of thing. It's not an affidavit, it's just a letter, and that's what it is.
