Copy to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}Bf.Sft.{Mr Swift}

I am in receipt of E.9/HP.14.10.36. The information you give is certainly very interesting and I quite agree that we must reconsider our decision in regard to this matter.

I expect to be up in Derby very shortly and will take the opportunity of discussing it with you and the others concerned.
