Notes.

This survey will not be commenced,

Reference is invited to Treasury letter No. S. 42826 of the 11th of August, 1939.

It is feared that supplementary provision of £20,000 will be required to meet the cost of additional defence and security measuri but this will be offset in part by a saving of £500 on the provisie: of £1,600 for presents to the King and officials of the Yanen.
