Hi Axel,

Many thanks for responding, I have just tried setting the sites to Private and then back to Public, unfortunately the missing permission does not re-appear. Our administrators have found a very old snapshot of the server from August, we are going to roll back to that and re-upload any documents added since then.

Many thanks for trying to help,

Best Wishes,

Mark
