"my clear & information Thank your/lé
you for your letter of 22 April,
you
concerning the appointment and reappointment
of members of Executive Council and Legislative
Council in June next.
Following the useful
discussions we had about this at official
level and our later talk with Lord Shepherd, I hai write & cayerm
you can now take it that we accept your
proposals.
You will recall our consideration of the
difficult question of broadening the basis of
appointments to the Councils and Lord Shepherd's
request to you to reflect further on this
problem before next year's nominations have
to be decided. I have no doubt that in the
course of the further contacts we shall be
having over the next few months there will be
opportunities to review again the very limited
possibilities that appear to be open to us in
this matter.
