The Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs to the Prime Minister of New Zealand2
My telegram of 23 December [No. 254], repeated to the Prime Minister of the Commonwealth of Australia. His Majesty's Government in the United Kingdom concurs in the reinforcement of Fiji Island at the expense of reinforcements for the 2nd New Zealand Division in the Middle East. We are also making arrangements for the early provision of such equipment for these reinforcements as cannot be supplied by New Zealand. Details are under discussion between the War Office and the New Zealand Military Liaison Officer here.
