Description

Correspondence, notes, and minute papers concerning the passing of two regulations under The Bahrain Order in Council, 1913: The Traffic in Cultured and Tinted Pearls Regulation, 1930 (see folios 107-109), and The Possession and Traffic in Arms Regulation, 1936 (see folios 5-5A).

The correspondence consists of discussion over the text of the new regulations between officials at the Political Residency in the Persian Gulf, Government of India (Foreign and Political Department), India Office, and Foreign Office. Copies of regulations passed under The Morocco Orders in Council, 1889-1929, Consolidated, are included in the file having been used for reference.
