Abercrombie Report.
200 copies of the above Report will be despatched by surface mail by the first available opportunity to the Crown Agents for the Colonies for delivery to you.
2.
For guidance of His Majesty's Stationery Office in fixing a sale price, the cost of the Report is $9.00 per volume. Copies of this Report have been placed on sale to the local public at $15.00 of which Government receives $12.00 but there is little demand locally.
3. If there is found to be a ready sale for this publication I would be prepared to consider releasing further copies to meet demand.
