Referring to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Lid.{A. J. Lidsey}z/MJ.3.2.32 and the recommendation in the second paragraph that double ended jaw spanners should be adopted as soon as the stock of single ended spanners is exhausted, I find that a decision to this effect was taken at our last meeting on the 7th ult, so presumably there is nothing to stop this being carried into effect?
