We have made some substantial progress in
setting our own house in order, and would make
more if we could get on with the production of
our new Codes.

The Joint Courts and the Bahrain Courts have
been largely withdrawn from our influence, but
there is now, since the Registrar's appointment,
a hope of influencing the former.
The Bahrain Courts cannot be appreciably

influenced until we get a Judicial Adviser
appointed and we cannot get much further with
this until we get our Persian Gulf Penal Code.

Sir,
Your Excellency's obedient Servant >
