aerodromes are "being made in South East Persia we need a
Vice-Consul for Bandar Abhas”. The G-ovemment of India Ext.5287/42.
have now telegraphed proposing to revive the post of
Vice-Consul, Bandar Abbas, - on the same terms as before,
to be superintended from Bushire with recess in Kerman.
His Majesty's Minister, Tehran, has agreed to the proposal
and considers that direct superintendence from Bushire
might be an advantage so far as shipping matters are ^
concerned. ^'he G-ovemment of India propose that the post Ex 26/42.
of Vice-Consul, Kerman, should be abolished, the present
incumbent, Lieutenant P.P.G. Nicholson, being sent to
Bandar Abbas. They are sanctioning the post of Extra
Assistant, Kerman, presumably under the present arrangement
by which His Majesty* s Government and the Government of
India can each sanction expenditure up to £1,000 without
reference to the other.
The Government of India's proposal does not appear to
involve the sanctioning of any expenditure by His Majesty* s
Government . 36 It is suggested that subject to the views
of the B’oreign Office this proposal might be approved. A
draft letter to the Foreign Office asking for their
concurrence is submitted.

It will apparently be necessary to secure the agreement .
of the Persian Government to the re-opening of the Bandar
Abbas Vice-Consulate (with the consequent alteration of the
district of H.M. Consul at Kerman); and to the appointment
of Lt. Nicholson there. It is for the Foreign Office to
decide exactly what instructions should be given to
Sir R. Bullard in the matter: but a sentence has been
added to the draft suggesting that some instructions will
be needed.
