June and feels that some approach should be made
the
Pnsions authorities in U.K. pointing out the terms under
which these grants are made in an endeavour to persuade
them to take a broader view.
It is felt by the Committee that the matter is
resence
of sufficient importance to take advantage of your
in London, with possibility the co-operation of the China
Association and Mr. Justice Williams (at present on U.K.
leave) in order to obtain some clarification of the
position which might be to the advantage, not only of
Mrs. Tinson's case, but others which might become similarly
affected.
As the subject is one of eneral interest I am
taking the liberty of sending a copy of this letter
together with enclosures listed, to Mr. Justice Willias
and the Secretary and Vice-Chairman of the China
Association.
Yours sincerely,
PAN: HW
(Sgd.) P.E. Nettle, Assistant Secretary, Hong Kong War Memorial Fund.
