information of the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs
a copy of a letter from the Government of India regarding
No. F.6l(2)-A/28 dated 29th May) the supply of furniture for the
Birjand Consulate and the Seiston Vice-Consulate from
which it will be seen that the Government of India accept
the suggestion that a moiety of the rent on the furniiure
should be credited to H.M.Government.
They also recommend that a maintenance grant
should be made for the upkeep of the furniture already
sanctioned, that the grant should be fixed at 8# per annum
on the capital charge, i.e. at Rs.232 a year for the two
places; and that the unexpended balances of this grant
should not lapse but should be available for maintenance
in succeeding years.
Subject to the concurrence of the Secretary
of State for Foreign Affairs, and the acceptance of the
Lords Commissioners of the Treasury of a moiety of the
cost as a charge upon Imperial revenues, it is proposed to
approve the proposals of the Government of India.
I am, etc.
