DRAFT.
to be. All that I can say on that
is that the suggestion, which you
made in conversation on the 4th of
February, for the combination of the
Prisons Departments of Kenya and
Uganda, is being considered but that
it has not yet been put officially
to the two Governors. It is clear,
therefore, that no decision is
likely to be reached on it for some
considerable time to come, and I
am afraid that it would not be
possible to hold over the selection
for the Hong Kong appointment until
the question of the amalgamation of
Prisons Departments in East Africa
has been settled.
FURTHER ACTION.
I should be grateful if
you would let me know as soon as
you can whether you wish to be
considered with other candidates
for the vacancy in Hong Kong.
