Dear Yfalton,
Will you please refer to Lai thv/aite 1 s letter
to me P.Z.7877/33 dated 4th December 1933 enclosing
copies of my letter of the 10th August 1933 on points
arising in connection with the transfer of Aden, and
of the minutes of the meeting at the Foreign Office at
which my letter was discussed? As it has been proposed
that 1 should go to England this summer to discuss
details connected with the transfer with the India
Office and the Colonial Office, I have prepared a note
reviewing the fourteen points that 'were then discussed,
ard adding remarks on further questions that appear to
me to require consideration and decision before the
transfer takes place. I enclose a copy of this note.
1 also enclose a copy of a draft estimate for Aden (as
distinct from the Aden Protectorate) showing probable
revenue and expenditure after its separation from
India.
I am sending a copy of the note and of the
draft estimate to the Colonial Office and to the
Foreign Secretary to the Government of India.
Yours sincerely,
(SD.) B.R.Reilly.
