We should endeavour to produce as soon as possible the first duplex push button starter switch for S.S. chassis to instructions EY/RD5/ML14.12.28. We understand from By/Shn. that the parts are mainly ready.

Will you please say whether it is possible to produce such a switch in time to fit to chassis 23-EX because in that case we would arrange to have altered for that chassis the gaps of the main and auxiliary switch unit which we have just received.

The importance of this lies in the fact that we have not yet had fitted to an S.S. chassis a main switch unit to R's gap instructions.
