I think C. A great should inform the your by telegraph that $1,000,000 is the limit of subsidiary com which may be supplied without special Treasury Authority and the reason for the present Indent should be asked.

P.C.M. 23/4/97.

Seems an unreason...able amount. Authorise the Agents to send out up to 3 instalments but we should at the same time telegraph, asking for explanations to the governor?

The Colonial Secretary's letter seems to regret that payments fortnightly in addition to the $100,000 already supplied & $300,000 to arrive by 15th July. Various fortnightly instalments would therefore have exhausted the Million Authorized. Instead of this they now telegraph...

16 & L(x) −21793 −3350---00 for $250,000 fortnightly in addition to $100,000 already supplied. Those fortnightly instalments would in this case nearly Exhaust the million. Both the demand clearly requires some explanation.

Proceed as proposed.
