In our paper [12[ we made extensive use of the details of the proofs given in our earlier paper [11], and, in particular, we claimed that Lemma 3 of [11] holds, not just when Y is a metric space, but also when Y is a Hausdorff space, provided X × Y is a Fréchet space. In a corrigendum to [11], we give a corrected version of this Lemma 3, but it seems to depend, in an essential way, on the assumption that Y is a metric space, or at least a perfectly normal space. In this note we show that a modified version of this Lemma 3 enables us to justify all the theorems in [12] by use of a modified method of selection.
