complication has arisen now when we are in
the middle of the defence contribution
negotiations.
Mr Royle thinks however
that we must make it quite clear to Tang
as soon as possible that there is no
commitment on the part of HMG to provide
a grant for the Polytechnic.
Subject to
any views you may have, Mr Royle would
like you to convey the attached message
to Tang at the best possible moment from
the point of view of the defence
contribution negotiations.
If you consider
that the message should be altered in any
way would you please let us know by
telegram.
