| To Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Y3066 Hsl/LG1.11.28. STANDARDISATION SHEETS. As I explained to you yesterday, the procedure is to send a separate standardisation sheet to each Official who has to sign. The copy for BJ. however is not sent until we have all the signatures and the cost of the parts. This usually means considerable delay. We recommend that we send you the standardisation sheets at the same time as the others are sent. You can then decide whether you wish to see the cost and any remarks which are made on the sheet by the other officials, before you sign. In the caseof the sheet attached, this is purely a technical modification - the difference in cost, if any, will be negligible. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
