Sent from M.L. Simmons
7 May 1958
Description:'Mr. Reed,
My minute above has been overtaken by the two telegrams from Delhi at (217) & (219). I attach a draft reply, after consultation with the Medical Research Council.
Mr. Whittaker MRC informed me that Shamrock Farms Ltd. are their holding agents and always receive their consignments of monkeys which are taken to the Shamrock Farms Monkey Hotel at Brighton. He said that MRC were satisfied with the way the monkeys were housed & looked after, although there was room for improvement. Normally monkeys sent from Delhi were consigned to MRC. The ones now referred to had come from Calcutta & had been consigned to Shamrock Farms. This was a mistake as the permits were in the name of MRC.
