Paragraph 7
Re-draft as follows:
(a) A first class passage by rail and sea from his present
residence to Bahrain will be granted to Mr. Adrian Vallance
on his first joining his post.
(b) A first class xa&txft passage to the United Kingdom
by sea and rail will be granted to the Superintendent of
Education on the final termination of his contract.
(c) A first class return passage on leave by sea and rail
to the United Kingdom will be granted on the completion of
efch two years of approved service.
4. I think this will be sufficiently clear. The trouble
in the first instance was that Belgrave’s own contract, for
the drafting of which we were apparently responsible, was
taken as a model. 1 have had to use in paragraph 7(a)
the words ”his present residence” because 1 am not sure
where Vallance is now though I suspect he is in Basra.
If this is so the draft could be amended accordingly.
