Subjecti- Government requirements <f Imported paper during
1945-46.
The Industries and Civil Supplies Department
desires that with effect from 1945-46 Government Departments
and offices should not buy imported paper In any appreciable
cuantlties the o en market. All substantial requirements
should be specially provisioned for by Government as x In the
case of Indigenous paper. Local purchase of Imported paper
upto the limit of Rs. 100/- a yenr will be permissible.

2. It is possible that the Home Department etc. and
offices attached and subordinate to them have been accustomed
to make large direct purchase of certain special varieties of
Imported paper from the market. This cuts across the policy
being introduced by the Industries and Civil Supplies
Department•
3. To avoid difficulty in future procurement it Is
necessary n^w to provision for such paper* The Central
Stationery Of fice has been able to prepare an estimate of the
g aper requirements of imported paper of the various Civil
apartments and Offices on the basis of past cmsuMption and
supplies. This estimate cannot cov r quantities hitherto
purchased direct, i.e., not through the Central Stationery
Office. An estimate of such direct purchases if any, during
the next financial year by the Home Department etc. and t heir
attached and subord inat e off ices may kindly be compiled and
furnished to this office by the 23rd December 1M4. in the
attached form to eftable us to make suitable provision for the
same in the total Imported paper requirements for 1945-46.
4. If no reply is received by the 2Srd Decrmber1944
it will be presumed that no direct purchases of imported paper
are made by the Home Department etc. and offices attached and
subordinate to them and that no additional provision is
necessary on thit account.
