| Title | Copy letter from Robert William Frederick Harrison, to Richard Lydekker, Fellow of the Royal Society |
| Date | 27 June 1907 |
| Description | 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. |
