P. O. BOX 6800 MO NTR EAL, CANADA H3C 3L~ June 4, 1981 P. Sheehy, Esq. Windsor House London Dear Pat, - °. Doctor A.M. (Alex) Morrison, the Deputy Minister of the Department of Health and Welfare, in the Canadian Government, has decided to take a one year sabbatical commencing July ist, 1981. Durlng this period, he will act in a consulting capacity with the World Health organization in Geneva. On July Ist, 1982, Dr. Morrison will return to his current post with the Canadian Government in Ottawa. The Canadian Tobacco Manufacturers' Council has worked closely with Dr. Morrison for several years in the overall area of smoking and health. Establishing, monitoring and communicating T & N information to smokers within Canada, a join= government- industry effort, was one of the more significant accomplishments undertaken with Dr. Morrison and his department, as was the movement to lower T & N delivery cigarettes during the past few years. More recently, we have engaged in wide-ranging discussions relating to CO, with a view to establishing a similar measurement and control process. During a discussion with Dr. Morrison in May, the subject of Research & Development within B.A.T. was raised. He was interested, of course, and I took the liberty of suggesting that a visit to Southampton to see what has been accomplished, in the area of CO might be worthwhile. If you feel this could be arranged, please let me know and in due course, I will forward Dr. Morrison's address and telephone number ln Geneva, so that you may contact him directly =o set up a mutually convenient':time. With'~ind regards, Sincerely, • , o ,; ? c.c. Dr. A.M. Morrison / m 0 0 0 "-4 0",
