Dear Ronald,
At
With reference to our telephone conversation on
Saturday about your official letter F.9827/1831/10 of
6th September regarding priority for Chinese Government
orders, I enclose copy of a letter Shackle wrote to the
Export Credits Guarantee Department on 7th September.
Friday's meeting of the Export Licensing Committee Nixon
said this was a matter for the Allied Demands Sub-Committee
and I understand that Export Credits Guarantee Department
will raise the question very on that body not
shortly
also
merely as it concerns China, but as it concerns the various
other Governments who have Credit Agreements with us. In
any case I presume you will have it raised, but on the
question of the machinery to enable the Export Licensing
Department to identify these Government
Orders,
Bankes-Amery has said that he will agree procedure with
Nixon.
N.B. Ronald, Esq., C.M.G. C.V.O.
Yours sincerely,
Arleauvil
