With respect to the Gun Section, we are aware that L.O.P.'s. of the sections which you have handled on the type BD{Mr Berend} gun have been completed as far as schemes have been provided.

We suggest that you should now produce an L.O.P. for the Non elevating mounting, which consists of a large bought out part made by the L.M. & S.R. together with certain of our details shewn on QPL.124 (2 sheets) and QPL.127.

There should be a index sheet of L.O.P.'s. for the 1st. 36 guns compiled by agreement between yourself and Ve/Robinson and a corresponding index sheet for the next set of guns having the Bronze cradle and Non-elevating Mounting.

Although neither of these guns are complete absolutely the sheets can be compiled up to date. The blanks would shew all concerned what is outstanding and therefore what should be concentrated on and progressed.
