Minutes of me e ting held at India
Office on Monday,, 9th October, to consider the
question of foreign consular representat i on in
the Persian G-ulf .
There were present Mr, Laithwaite (in the
Chair), Lieutenant Colonel T.C.Fowle, C.B.S,,

A senior ranking political representative (equivalent to a Consul General) from the diplomatic corps of the Government of India or one of its subordinate provincial governments, in charge of a Political Residency.
in the Persian G-ulf, and Mr.
K.R.Johnstone, Foreign Office.
Mr, Laithwaite said that the meeting arose
out of Bushire despatch No.847 S of 20th July to
the Government of India on the subject of foreign
consular representation in Bahrein. The Government
of India had. since intimated that they saw no
objection to the discussion of the points in issue
by the
Political Resident
A senior ranking political representative (equivalent to a Consul General) from the diplomatic corps of the Government of India or one of its subordinate provincial governments, in charge of a Political Residency.
during his leave in this
country, but that they wished to be informed of
what took place at the discussion and consulted
before any decision was taken.
2, The question had arisen in connection with
the possibility of an American request to be allowed
consular representation in Bahrein; but it seemed
desirable not merely to deal with this specific
point, but also so far as possible to endeavour to
reach agreement on certain broad principles as
regards foreign consular representation in the Gulf
States. The question was probably a live one in
Bahrein and Koweit only, (the position of Muscat
being of course special) though it might arise in
Qatar in the event of oil being developed in that
principality/
