INTER-UNIVERSITY COUNCIL FOR HIGHER EDUCATION IN THE COLONIES.

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE:

21.v.48.

Agenda Item No. 8.

UNIVERSITY OF HONG KONG:

I.U.C./E.19./48.

APPLICATION FOR CAPITAL GRANT

FROM THE C. D. AND W. HIGHER EDUCATION ALLOCATION.

Attached is a copy of an application dated 29th

April 1948 submitted by Mr. Sloss, for grants to meet various needs of the University of Hong Kong, totalling £255,500.

The Colonial Office will not be able to place this

application formally before the Colonial University Grants

Advisory Committee until there has been consultation with the

Governor of Hong Kong. It will, however, probably be brought

informally to the attention of the Grants Committee at its

next meeting.

The requests for grants are submitted to the

Executive Committee for comment on their academic aspects.

W. A.

11th May, 1948.
