Interesting, but I was speaking collectively, not of an individual. Although I suppose policies are issued in the name of AMSO himself and one imagines he studies, accepts and approves their impact. It was AMSO policy from 1988-on to withhold funding for those aspects of airworthiness I mention. That policy would have had to be developed the previous year ('87) as it was quite a comprehensive document. The resultant problems were, I believe, sufficient to introduce doubt in this case - which is all I can reasonably aim to do as I don't know exactly what happened on 2nd June 1994. This root cause was not addressed by the BoI, but they did mention, many times, the effect on Front Line. And most of Boscombe's concerns expressed in 1993 correspondence can be traced directly to that policy.
