11. The effect discussed in [10] was investigated under several operating conditions for the slave laser. For an isotropic slave laser, full polarisation dragging was observed; for a loss anisotropic slave laser, power dependent polarisation dragging was observed; and for a phase anisotopic slave laser, polarisation bistability was observed
