Strong action

Following the unexepected failure of the Prime Minister to defend Mr. Laurenson. they can be expected to press for strong action against him.

In his letter Mr. Holyoake says "I am satisfied that his (Mr. Laurenson's) conversation was not solelv to secure information for the New Zealand National Party from the Security Service about Mr. Boshier."

It is on this sentence that Mr. McGrath bases his assertion that one purpose of Mr. Laurenson's phone call was to obtain security information about Mr. Boshier for political use.
