A special inequality between the tail probabilities of certain related hypergeometrics was shown by Seneta and Phipps [19] to suggest useful ‘quasi-exact’ alternatives to Fisher's [5] Exact Test. With this result as motivation, two inequalities of Hájek and Havránek [6] are investigated in this paper and are generalised to produce inequalities in the form required. A parallel inequality in binomial tail probabilities is also established.
