[Gnso-igo-ingo-crp] Redline version (Re: Updated memo from Professor Swaine)

[Mary Wong]

Dear George and everyone – yes, of course; my apologies that I hadn’t done so! Please find the redlined, Word version attached; however, for purposes of publication, circulation and such please regard the clean PDF version as authoritative since this redline was generated by me and not the Professor.

Thanks and cheers
Mary

Thanks, Mary. If it's possible to generate a redline version, to
quickly and efficiently compare with the earlier draft, that'd be
useful.

Sincerely,
