Sent from Commonwealth Relations Office
7 May 1955
Description:'...
You will by now have received W. Thomson's letter TR50/5/6 of 26th April which sets out the requirements of monkeys for import by the Medical Research Council, and you also have the separate Ministry of Supply application referred to in our telegrams No. 911 and 767. It is probably unecessary for me to stress the great anxiety that both these bodies are evincing that the orderly flow of monkeys under Government of India regulations should be got under way. The polio vaccine issue has of course attracted great public interest.
I should add that they are both investigating East Pakistan as a source of supply though nothing has come of this yet.'
