DORMANT COMMISSION
Mr Royle agreed on 13 January that this Commission should
be cancelled.
Mr Grattan then suggested that in the absence
of the Secretary of State we should proceed with the
submission to the Palace.
2. The Department's Legal Adviser considers that there is
no need for Her Majesty to sign anything or to do any other
formal act; HM merely needs to signify her approval to the
proposal that the Commission be terminated.
3. A draft letter to The Queen's Private Secretary is
attached.
