Diplomatic Officers in European countries should be trans
mitted in the first instance to the Department of Overseas
Trade.

possible steps being taken to strengthen the mutual co
operation of the several parts of the Empire in matters of
commercial intelligence with a view to the development of
Empire trade, welcomes the arrangements proposed by His

"It also welcomes the offer of the Governments of the
Dominions which had appointed Trade Commissioners in countries
overseas to make a similar arrangement for the utilisation of
those officers by Governments of other parts of the Empire.
"The Conference further recommends that, when two or more
Governments of the Empire maintain commercial representatives
in the same country, an endeavour should be made to arrange
that the offices of these representatives should be in the same
building or in close proximity, in order to facilitate all
possible co-operation between such representatives in their
work on behalf of Empire trade."
