We have received six pairs of scuttle panels from Messrs.Park Wards with a request that we should louvre them to match up with our bonnet sides. We understand that this question was discussed when Mr.Park recently visited the Works. The Tinsmith's Dept. informs us that there is no difficulty in doing the job as the length of the louvres required is exactly the same as on our bonnets. Do you agree that this work can proceed.
