And it’s always good to remember, of course, that grammatically correct isn’t always going to be correct for your character. Most people don’t speak textbook correct English in real life, and if everything your characters say uses polished, perfect grammar they won’t sound real.
Your example sounds fairly official, though, so the more formal example works better.
