LONDON, n.d. [1]
As the result of a conversation I had a few days ago with P.M. [2]
on this subject we have arranged that in addition to the direct
access to him which must be limited owing to pressure he is under
and possible embarrassments if my contacts with him were markedly
closer than those of other Dominion representatives I should have
an indirect access to him through Morton his close personal
assistant and that I should be given whatever information I asked
for from the Service and other Departments.
This arrangement plus facilities I now have for seeing
communications to and from Diplomatic posts abroad which are not
included in those made available to the H.Cs appear to me as
effective and useful a method of meeting the difficulties of the
position as can be devised.
