Initials and titles

• As far as possible, use peoples first names, not their initials.
• Initials of a person’s names should have spaces but no full stops

Example: T H Smith

• Initials used in any other instance must have no spaces or full stops

Example: MTN

• Note the use of capitals and commas for announcing a person and his/her designation:

The Divisional Director, Joe Soap, said……. or

Joe Soap, the Divisional Director, said…

Don’t use: Joe Soap, Divisional Director, said ………
