It is confirmed that from the local naval
aspect, there is no objection to the frequencies
selected by B.O.A.C. for the operation of their Radio
Aid Equipment.
2. It is desired to point out however that
Admiralty is responsible for the frequency allocations
of the Royal Navy, and therefore any queries on the
subject should be referred to Admiralty direct, especially
when major decisions are required as in this case./
However, it is almost certain that this has already
been done in this instance in view of the close co-operation
that normally exists between the various services and
Government Departments over matters of this kind.
