With reference to your letter No.13702/33 of the
17th February regarding the re-exportation after repairs of
an atlas Mark II aeroplane from this country to Hong Kong,
I am directed by the Board of Trade to state that they concur
in the views expressed in the letter addressed to your
Department by the Foreign Office on 4th March. Now that the
embargo has been lifted no question arises as to the date
of the contract, but an export licence will still be necessary
for the gun mountings and other armaments fitted to the
aeroplane.
An application for an export licence will no
doubt be submitted in due course by Messrs. Sir .G.Armstrong-
Whitworth (Aircraft) Limited.
I have the honour to be,
Drely happ
