h*
property jji accordanco with the uncle rat anding
made with Sheikh isa at the time of the purchase
of the reclaimed part of this property in 1908.
This is to apply to all and subsequent reclama
tions so that the Mesopotamia Persia Corporation
Limited, their heirs and successors, will always
have the opportunity of not being cut off from,
or buildings erected between their property
and the open sea^ a Should, however, the
kesoipotamia Persia Corporation Limited not
take advantage of the offer of the ground, the
same would lapse to the Bahrein Go®erniaent H ,
I think Mr.Belgrave's proposal was a little too
generous as it would have given the Company Lhe
full benefit at no cost to themselves of any
reclamation that the Bahrein Govemmerxt might
hereafter consider advisable in the public interest,
jn the alternative the Bahrein Grovernment. might
owing to this clause, refuse to carry out works
in the public interest w&tch it would otherwise
willingly have undertaken.
On the other hand the .Mesopotamia Persia
Corporation who are agents for the B-i.S.N.Coy
and the Landing Company are practically a maritime
concern and it would be a distinct hardship to cut
off their property from the sea.
The same or similar questions must frequently
have arisen in connection with the reclamation work
undertaken by the Karachi Port 1'rust or the Bombay
i
Port Commssionera.
