revised letters of appointment are being, or by
now probably have been, issued to the officers
concerned. This was based on a misunderstanding
that arose in the office, for obviously the position
of such officers cannot be clarified until you receive
a reply to your telegram No. 1184 of the 19th July,
which we hope to send off very shortly. I trust this
error will not have caused you any embarrassment locally.
As however it seems likely that a number of
:
the petitioners decided to send copies of the petition
to various M.P. s., and we may therefore have further
letters on the subject, I thought I would write and
ask you for a report on how matters now stand with
regard to the petition. We assume you have deferred sending it
to the Secretary of State until you have had an answer
to your telegram No. 1184.
May we take it that, once this
answer has been given, we may soon expect to receive
the petition officially.
