Unfortunately, it appears a technical glitch meant that our regular email alert was not sent out on that day. We were alerted to the problem yesterday and as a consequence we are now dispatching the alert. We have extended the closing date for all matters listed in the Circular by 1 week to account for the delay. We apologise for any inconvenience.
