ANNEX B
NOTE ON INADEQUACY OF EXISTING RESOURCES
1. There has been no additional Information
finance for the British Council since the early
1970s and any new initiatives in respect of changes
in foreign policy such as the opening of new posts
in Syria, Burma and the Philippines have also had
to be achieved by redeployment of existing
resources. The main new activities which the
Council are likely to have to finance from within
their existing resources from 1979/80 are:
(a) China. Apart from the specific expansion
proposed above there are likely to be new
opportunities for an expansion of educational
and cultural relations with China.
(b)
:
South Africa. The Council has already found
some £10-15,000 from within its own
resources for increased work here, and the FCO
are seeking to persuade them to increase
expenditure within the next few years by
some £50-100,000.
