- Title:
- Report of a committee on the Muscat subsidy and the Zanzibar Agency and Consulate
- Scope & Content:
-
A printed report, written by a Committee formed by Louis Mallet, Henry Cadogan Rothery and William Henry Wylde, 8 December 1876.
The Committee was nominated by H M's Treasury, the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs and the Secretary of State for India, to determine whether the Imperial Government had to contribute to the payment of an annual subsidy to the Sultan of Muscat (as compensation for the abandonment of his claims upon Zanzibar) and of the expenses of the Agency and Consulate at Zanzibar, which had been paid by the India Office since 1870.
The committee acknowledges that in 1873 it was agreed that these payments should be divided between Imperial and Indian Government, hence the Imperial Government had to compensate the India Office for the payments made in the years 1873-1877.
The report includes a summary of payments made to the Sultan of Muscat between May 1873 and February 1877, expenses for the British Agency and Consulate General at Zanzibar for the period 1872-1877, and a proposed budget estimate for the future, to be equally divided between Imperial and Indian Government.
Two declarations follow the report, from two comissioners in disagreement with the report.
