§ Mr. DellIt is not the practice of the Managing Director of the IMF to send replies to letters applying for IMF credit facilities of the kind which my right hon. Friend wrote to him on 18th December 1975. Such letters are considered by the IMF Executive Board, which decides whether or not to grant the facilities in question. As my right hon. Friend stated in the House of Commons on 12th January 1976, both United Kingdom requests have been granted.
