Will you please refer to your Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Wst13/AP.2.6.37, wherein you advised us that high tension cable was in stock and could be had by us on demand.

Will you please look into this matter as we are still obliged to use condemned material. Bk.{A. Birkett - Commercial Manager} | ||
