I KNOW THAT THE GOVERNOR IS PLANNING TO BE IN LONDON IN EARLY APRIL IT OCCURS TO ME THAT THE PRIME MINISTER AND THE FOREIGN SECRETARY MIGHT WANT TO TAKE THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONVENE ANOTHER MEETING OF OPD(K), PARTICULARLY IN VIEW OF THE SERIOUSNESS OF THE PRESENT SITUATION.

2.

IF THERE IS TO BE A MEETING OF OPD (K) IT MAY BE THAT MINISTERS WOULD WANT ME TO RETURN TO LONDON FOR IT. I AM NOT/NOT FISHING FOR AN INVITATION, BUT IT WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE SOME ADVANCE WARNING IF YOU THINK IT LIKELY THAT I MIGHT BE SUMMONED BACK.
