Copy letter from Robert William Frederick Harrison, to Richard Lydekker, Fellow of the Royal Society Harrison explains that the Indian Government Advisory Committee met the previous day and appointed five special Sub-Committees to consider the different sections of the programmes and reports submitted to the Committee by the India Office. Lydekker has been nominated a member of the geology sub-committee alongside Sir Archibald Geikie. The only document immediately before them is the annual report of the Board of Scientific Advice for 1905-6, but the Programme of Work for 1907-8 is likely to be received next month. The Chairman has proposed to Geikie, who has been asked to act as chairman of the sub-committee, that these documents be considered together to allow a report upon them to be made to the full committee early in the autumn. Lydekker has also been nominated a member of a sub-committee on zoology, of which Dr Gunther has been asked to act as Chairman. 27 June 1907
