In some instances, persons' names occur in these documents which it seems unnecessary to present in this form of the document because the names do not add anything to the relevance of the document in the current context. If any reader has a particular need to know the name, Alasdair McKay will seek the permission of the person in question to pass it on to that reader.
This convention has been followed in cases where the person in question is named other than in his/her official capacity in the original document.
