Monday 22nd March 1982

Most morning on Annexes of Unemployment Report. They are much worse than the Report. A lot of it is wrong, both analytically and factually. - Vereker warned me of this.

JH [John Hoskyns] agrees with my assessment of PW [Price Waterhouse?] report on BA - why pursue capital reconstruction. It is merely façade they need to get their route/manpower in order.
