- Title:
- File 17/10 II Flagstaff — flags and other stores
- Scope & Content:
-
The file is concerned with orders of flags and related supplies for the Bahrain Agency's flagstaff and for use on the Agency's launch. It therefore contains a range of records concerning orders, deliveries, payments, related correspondence, and internal agency notes. Most of the supplies are acquired — prior to Indian Independence in 1947 — from either the Royal Indian Dockyard or Army and Navy Stores Limited, both in Bombay. Following independence, supplies are acquired direct from Foreign Office Departments; the principal officers involved being the Naval Store Officer and the Controller of Naval Accounts in Bombay. In addition to procuring supplies for the Bahrain Agency, there is also a little correspondence reflecting its role in distributing flags to the subordinate Trucial Coast Agency, along with a little correspondence on the topic with the Persian Gulf Political Residency.
Also contained in the file on folios 165-166 are instructions dated 28 October 1947, from the Persian Gulf Political Residency, regarding the flags to be used by diplomatic and consular officers.
