ATLA HEARING ON LONDON/HONG KONG ROUTE
Sir Freddie Laker has complained to Ministers
We assume
that the 1949 Air Transport Regulations are out-dated.
Have you any objection to our telling him that you
have invited Kean to undertake a review?
the regulations would not in any case be revised
before Laker's application for the Pacific route is heard,
but would be grateful for any indication of the time
scale you have in mind.
