About this item

Content

This part comprises telegrams, despatches, correspondence, memoranda, and notes pertaining to proposed occupation of the Kamaran Islands. Discussion includes the reasoning that the British saw for this in order to pre-empt Italian action and the Government of India's view that in the first place an understanding should be arrived at with the Italian Government. Further discussion concerns the Foreign Office's view that an arrangement with Italy would be impracticable and their preference therefore for British occupation of the islands. Also discussed is an application by a British company for a licence to prospect for minerals on the Farsan Islands.
