| S/W Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to EP{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} and CJ. X.3461 PN{Mr Northey}2/DN23.9.21. X.2565 X.3461 - RE Chassis No.46-RE. In reply to Rd/Rns1/57A/M17.9.21 - the understanding made with Mr. Fisher was that our charge would be approximately £25. for fitting the shock absorbers, and that he would be asked to pay this sum only if a reasonable and substantial improvement could be detected by reason of the device being there. Directly I am advised that this chassis is ready for me to test, I would like to do this. As I have arranged to be in Derby on Wednesday next, perhaps I could also attend to this matter at the same time. PN.{Mr Northey} | ||
