I do remember seeing email a while ago (checked: 27 June), when things were preliminary etc, but don't recall anything recent with the final agenda etc? And definitely not four. And don't recall a post package either (but living outside the UK that might be an exception). If you could send me the dates/topics/sender I could check my archives and spam though.
