I HAVE SPOKEN TO GOVERNOR BAHAMAS ABOUT COLLETT. I UNDERSTAND THAT HE WILL NEED A PERIOD OF LEAVE AFTER LEAVING THE BAHAMAS AND PROBABLY WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL SEPTEMBER, NEVERTHELESS, HE SOUNDS AS THOUGH HE WILL BE A VERY SUITABLE CHOICE AND I WOULD BE GRATEFUL, THEREFORE, IF AN APPROACH COULD
BE MADE TO HIM TO ASK WHETHER HE WOULD BE INTERESTED. PROVIDED AN APPOINTMENT IS ANNOUNCED BEFORE HOBLEY LEAVES, WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO MANAGE WITH AN ACTING APPOINTMENT FOR A FEW MONTHS.
