SM gone missing – Urgent Advice sought –

Met with our SM’s principal  (very large strata manager) last week with our lists of serious concerns and he undertook to get back with something “meaningful”. This did not happen; on chasing him this morning we, the EC Chair and Sec were advised their computers crashed. Their phones remain unanswered and we have made an enquiry to Fair Trading with our list  below only to receive an auto reply to expect a reply within 7 days. When we called Fair Trading we were advised they were all busy but one of their officers would get back to us – nothing yet.

Money is involved and we are concerned for our records and documentations, and need advice on how we can get FT to look into this matter before further loss is incurred.

Please can anyone advise
