INTRODUCTION Its aim is to present to the recipient the issue that will be discussed in the document The introduction should be brief, just one or two sentences. If the matter has already been the subject of an exchange of letters, you only need to refer to previous correspondence. Katarzyna Gagan, Anna Krawczuk

4 PRESENTATION OF THE ISSUE
It immediately follows the introduction. This is the main part of the content of the document, also called the matrix (e.g. In administrative decisions). It contains an explanation of what the writer wants, otherwise – it presents a problem that is an issue of this document. It should be written concisely but comprehensively and unequivocally.

JUSTIFICATION Here, the recipient must be convinced of the correctness of the position taken by the sender of the letter. It usually is the longest part of the letter, the motives and a detailed justification related to the matter should be included. Factual justification should demonstrate what facts were taken as proof, what evidence was included, what evidence was omitted, all of which testifies in favor of presented case. Legal justification provides the legal basis (regulations), confirming the validity of the position taken by the author of the letter. In justification, all arguments should be presented clearly, logically and consistently. This part of the content of the document should be very convincing, comprehensive and it should lead to conclusions. Katarzyna Gagan, Anna Krawczuk
