Note. As far as possible the Council tries to get its visitors, scholars, &c., to bear the cost of their own visits and especially of their own fares; and a number of those from the Middle East do come either wholly or partly at their own expense or at the expense of their Governments. It is thought that this activity could be considerably increased immediately if the Council were able to offer full expenses, including fares. The figures assume that the fares of one-third of the increased numbers will be paid either by themselves or by their Governments.

Note. To enable good-quality British staff to be recruited for posts in schools, teacher training colleges, universities and under the armed Services and police, it is proposed
(a) to offer subsidies. Figures above cover 21 professors, 12 lecturers, I headmaster, 34 teachers and assistant masters and 2 advisers; subjects covered might be English, medicine, political science, history, economics and social studies. The above figures represent approximately two-thirds of the present known demand. It may be advisable to subsidise half-a-dozen teachers' posts in the Service cadet colleges in Pakistan.
(b) to guarantee the candidate's contract with the foreign institution. Figures above assume
that between 2 per cent. and 5 per cent. of this liability would need to be met each year. (c) A note by the Ministry of Education is attached. (Appendix F, Part 2).
