15. The expected proportions of Colonial Dominion and Foreign students would justify the rising contribution from United Kingdom funds which might possibly include some subventions from the Dominions. The Vice-Chancellor has
supplied figures to show the nationality and domicile of students over the period 1928 1941. The average of these
figures is as follows:-
From

From Foreign
Territories Dominions Territories

For the year 1941 the figures were:

For the year 1950, the estimated figures are:

These proposals are broadly speaking based on the
conception of a fifty-fifty division of expenditure over the
next ten years as between United Kingdom funds (other than
Colonial Development and welfare) and Hong Kong and
Colonial Development funds. Over a longer period the
proportion of His Majesty's Government's contribution to the
aggrejte expenditure becomes progressively smaller.
