No I'm not saying that. The Trust, and Keith must have assumed that he should attend in his official capacity because the Trust report supports that view. If he had been invited as an individual that surely the report would have made that point?
I believe the Trust made a mistake in making this Trust business. As you mentioned previously it is hard to shake off the badge of office when invited to a meeting in a personal capacity( if that was the case). In my book an error of judgment to have attended such a meeting, let's move on.
