[T.] Mervyn [Jones], Wales Gas Board, 2 Windsor Place, Cardiff. Does not see that Huw T. Edwards's decision to change his political allegiance should in any way affect his membership of the Wales Gas Board.

Edwards should send a similar letter direct to the Minister. Feels that Huw T. Edwards's letter typifies his 'open-hearted honesty'. For this reason, a letter to the Minister on similar lines would be appropriate.
