    All the theorems in the paper proved are correct. The main achievement of this paper is that the authors improve and complete Hahn's results [see \textit{F. Hahn}, Rev. Econ. Stud. 29, 329-331 (1962)], and make the assumptions more compact. In particular they correct an error of Hahn. The proof in the appendix is correct, but tedious. Finally, there is a small misprint on page 319. The lower right-hand block matrix of matrix C should be the unit matrix.
