Mr Hamilton argued against further capital investment.He added that if it was unavoidable , it should be delayed for a few years. He asked the meeting to give serious consideration to an alternative investment project -the long term development of the plan in Milan.

Mr Brewer argued that any delay in expansion would be harmful for two reasons:(1) because the situation in Europe is changing rapidly, and (2) because waiting would be much more costly in the long term
