The G. of I. are not on much stronger
ground in para. 2 of their letter. For though the
appointment of consular agent was not actually
abolished till the end of the quarantine overlap
period and it might be contended that while it
existed the cost of it is divisible, the fact
remains that the incumbent had received no pay
in the past as Consular agent and that his main
functions and the whole of his emoluments had
been those of quarantine officer.
If we have a claim, it would seem best
to drop the Bunder ftbbas analogy and rest it on
the equity of sharing the cost of transitional
arrangements made to avoid a breakdown in the
quarantine service.
If you agree I suggest that one of the
following alternatives might be adopted:-
(l) merely to forward the G. of I*s letter to the
F.O. without enthusiasm,
(2) to say that v while we do not quite agree with
the G. of I. that the Lingah case is in
pari materia- with that at Bunder Abbas 'we
suggest that the cost of the transitional
arrangement made to prevent a breakdown at
the time of the transfer of the service to
Persia ought to be shared, despite the
obiter dictum in the G. of I’s telegram of
21 May 1928 which was never taken up.
