Scope and content
Refers to A3/45/1, and suggests that Reading should reassure Lloyd that he had kept Montagu fully aware of his opinions, and that Montagu had taken them into full consideration; that it was a matter that affected the whole of India, not just the presidency of Bombay; and that Montagu appreciates the difficulties of the situation, and has confidence in Reading.
