Settlements contribution, remarks that the Hong Kong proposals "involve dropping a claim for a refund of £114,000 which would be

receive this assurance; no reference appears to have been made
to it in the correspondence received from your Department as to
the Hong Kong proposals.
(6) The Treasury would of course have to be a party to any
change in the basis of assessment. The War Office would
naturally express its views to the Treasury in due course, but it
might save time if the Treasury were considering the matter from
their point of view simultaneously. I do not know whether you have in this case intentionally departed from your practice of
sending the Treasury a copy of the proposals at the same time as
they are sent to the War Office.
Yours, sincerely,
