Professor Phil Jones admitted during an interview with the ''[[BBC]]'' his record keeping is "not as good as it should be," and that he "did not do a thorough job" of keeping track of his own records. Colleagues say that the reason Phil Jones refused [[FOIA|Freedom of Information]] requests is that he may have actually lost the relevant papers.
