SIR PERCY CRADOCK
1.
Your minute of 29 June refers.
2.
The Cabinet Secretary will send us a note of his conversation with Sir Percy Cradock this morning, which I attended.

He did ask whether there was scope to review the position towards the end of this year. Sir Robin Butler said that we were prepared to review the position at any time. But you will wish to await the Cabinet Secretary's account which will be the authoritative version of the conversation.
