| 1204 Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}1/R.1.1.39. With reference to the attached copy memo - Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}3/R.18.11.38., in addition to the convenience point of view, it is necessary to point out that there is so little room for the existing staff in the section allocated in the Repair Dept. that it is difficult to see how any cabinets can be accommodated anywhere. Furthermore, we have no Conference Room, nor has any provision been made for Leslie and Staff. The attached suggestion will enable this disability to be overcome.
