Sir,
In continuation of the letter from this Bepart»-
ment Hoo 18 -T, dated the 25rdJ November 1^26, I am directed
to say that the Secretary of ^tate has requested that such
instructions should be issued as will ensure that the use
of the indications"Immediate" and rt Important H is confined
strictly to the class of telegrams for which they are
intendeds
2 o In respect of the marking of jste telegrams,
H Immediate n , the Secretary of State has pointed out that a
telegram can only be justifiably so marked when a saving
of time to the extent of two hours is of essential importanee
and that the importance of the subject per se does not in
the least warrant the use of such marking.
3. I am accordingly to request that (with the permissio:
of Mis Excellency the Governor-in-Council) the necessary
Instructions may be issued so that particular attantion
is paid by the officers concerned to the instructions of the
Secretary of State and that the marking of ika: "Immediate"
is in future strictly limited to telegrams of the utmost
urgericyo The occasions on which its use is necessary should
be extremely rare, the marking "Important* being quite
sufficient in all but the most exceptional circumstanceso
