The file contains correspondence related to the re-establishment of local administration in Persia [Iran] following the Anglo-Soviet Invasion in 1941. The focus of the file is the distribution of wheat, though security matters do receive some consideration. A large proportion of the papers are related to the appointment of Area Liaison Officers, Consular Liaison Officers, and Vice-Consuls to provide supervision of Persian provincial administration. This includes correspondence over the conditions, pay, and allowances of these officers.
The main correspondents are as follows: Sir Reader William Bullard, HM Minister at Tehran (from 1943 Ambassador); Adrian Holman, Chargé d'affaires at Tehran; officials of the Foreign Office, officials of the India Office, and representatives of the External Affairs Department of the Government of India.
The file includes a divider which gives the subject number, the year the subject file was opened, the subject heading, and a list of correspondence references by year. This is placed at the back of the correspondence.
