Report complex speech

Maya, a colleague at work, has heard some things about a new policy from another colleague, Robert. She is about to ask you what Robert has said. Your job is to report what Robert has said, using reported speech with modal backshift where appropriate, and to mark at least one piece of information as hearsay using an evidential marker (e.g. /reportedly, allegedly, apparently/) or by stressing an auxiliary. Try to use at least three of the phrases from the useful-phrases table.
