Judgment affirmed, without costs or disbursements.
Inasmuch as a superintendent's proceeding is not a full-scale adversary hearing requiring that inmates be afforded the rights to confrontation and counsel ( Matter of Gunn v Ward, 71 A.D.2d 856, aff'd 52 N.Y.2d 1017), we deem petitioner's contentions regarding the denial of his right to call witnesses on his own behalf to be devoid of merit. The record clearly reflects that petitioner was unequivocally informed of his right to call witnesses, provided that he did not, by doing so, jeopardize institutional safety or correctional goals. The witnesses designated by him were interviewed by the employee assistant in accordance with departmental regulations. At no point during the superintendent's proceeding did petitioner make any further requests or demands. Moreover, the superintendent's proceeding report is sufficient to provide a written basis for authorities. Indeed, such is the purpose of the written statement requirement (see Matter of Amato v Ward, 41 N.Y.2d 469, 472; Matter of Baker v Wilmot, 65 A.D.2d 884, 885, app dsmd 46 N.Y.2d 939).
Accordingly, the article 78 proceeding was properly dismissed. Lazer, J.P., Bracken, Weinstein and Niehoff, JJ., concur.
