Our letter to Stewart PF 5728 of 7th January.
— ^ — —
Arrangements which we hoped to make to
deal with additional work in Fiastern Department
consequent upon transfer of responsibility for
Persian Gulf The historical term used to describe the body of water between the Arabian Peninsula and Iran. to Foreign Office have unfortunately
broken down.
2. An officer with Gulf experience is urgently
needed in that department and we are therefore
anxious to withdraw Stewart as soon as possible.
Could you release him immediately and make
acting arrangements at Muscat until we can make
another^officer available? If so, please
instruct him to return by air and inform him
that we shall do our best to ensure that he gets
a fair spell of leave later in the year. We
should have to ask him to join Eastern Department
almost immediately on his return.
3. As successor we are considering the
appointment of Ellison, now First Secretary
and Consul at Panama.

He is 52 and has
considerable experience of Arabic speaking
countries, including Saudi Arabia. He speaks
some Arabic and could be available about June.
