which one is correct?

a. We seek your permission to supply --- to each house in your village; or

b. We seek your permission FOR US to supply --- to each house....

thanks so much

Update:

REE D, could you explain why? does it have something to do with "permit" being a transitive verb?.. but am using the noun form.. i wanna go with the second, but i can't decide with a complete heart.

    I like answer "b" better--it indicates clearly who will supply the item to the houses in the village.

    Good luck!
