3. The Government ol" India are^ of course, the
responsible lighting and buoying authority, and it would
tie necessary to discuss any alteration of the position
of the lightship with them. The Aamiralty have, however,
suggested that, unless the Government of India see
difficulty ahout this, it should he possible to meet the
point which you have raised by mooring the lightship in
9i fathoms at Latitude ^6°35' N. Longitude E.
We are not really in a position to say here whether any
hitch is likely to arise over such a location and we
shall have tO' consult the Government of India® But
before we take the matter up with them perhaps you would
be so kina as to confirm try understanding that a location
such as the Admiralty suggest, if the Government of
India see no objection to it, would meet the point
which the Company have raised?
Yours sincerely,
J,G. LAITHWAITE.
