MY LORD, I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your Lordship's letter of the 9th instant, and to inform you that it has just been decided by the Executive Council that, with regard to the Colonies, the time for sending in exhibits relating to Food, Dress, the Workshop and the Dwelling, should be extended to the last days of April, on the understanding that all exhibits are in their places by the 1st of May.
And that for any exhibits relating to Education, an even longer extension of time may be granted, as it is not intended to open the educational section of the Exhibition until the 1st June. At the same time I would request your Lordship to have the kindness to impress upon the Colonial Govern- ments the necessity of informing the Executive Council, as soon as possible, the amount of space they will require.
