Please refer to your letter EXT.2940/47_of 5th
January about launches for the Residency An office of the East India Company and, later, of the British Raj, established in the provinces and regions considered part of, or under the influence of, British India. and the
Agencies in the Persian Gulf The historical term used to describe the body of water between the Arabian Peninsula and Iran. .
We are not particularly anxious to raise with
the Government of India at present the question of
taking over individual items of equipment until the
general negotiations started in New Delhi by 1;he High
Commissioner as a result of Cabinet Office telegrams
Nns-TTKPT 497 and 498 o f 26th July last have made
further progress. You will remember that in these
telegrams the High Commissioner was asked to negotiate
primarily about buildings, but that I think it is
generally understood that these negotiations cover
not only buildings but all equipment as well. We
do not want to start negotiations with the Government
of India on a piecemeal basis about individual items
of equipment such as launches. The point seems
to be that 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. and the Agencies have
the use of buildings, launches, equipment, etc., and
that there is no danger of the present Government of
India or Pakistan wanting any of these assets in the
Persian Gulf The historical term used to describe the body of water between the Arabian Peninsula and Iran. . On that basis therefore the Resident
and his officers will continue to enjoy the use of
their launches.
Moreover, the method of valuation proposed is
according to the current market prices. While this
would be all very well if it were a question of
/selling
