Tragically for your case, the minutes don't mention these decisions at all.
As sources go, I would suggest that the official minutes of the War Cabinet are a pretty good source to prove or disprove that statement of Pips
PS I am still waiting for your comments about how the fuel reserves went up from May to August without any tankers getting through.
PPS I can confirm that the original paper papers from the War Cabinet are the same as the on line ones. I went through the originals before they were made avaialble on line
