also copies of the replies which have been sent to the
M.P.'s concerned. I should be grateful for your
observations on the two points which are referred to
in the final paragraph of each of these replies.
3. All four officers attached to their letters to
M.P.'s copies of Colonial Secretary's' letter of 4th
March, 1948 (reference 5/1681/47C), which is based
on terms of my despatch No. 46 of 17th February.

which deals with pension rights and quoted paragraph
quote
4 of my despatch, does not of course apply to

ex-Borough Police. I note that Saul, Brown and
Winch are ex-Metropolitan Police and, as regards their
pension position, may, therefore, be under some
