It will be observed that taking the expenditure as a whole the scheme 

 involves at present an extra cost of about Rs. 3,300 a year. Financially 

 the main effect of this scheme is that Government will in future make a 

 grant of Rs. 10,708 only to the Museum instead of its present grants, but 

 will accept responsibility for the whole of the expenditure of the Zoological 

 Survey. 



5. In conclusion, the Governor General in Council trusts that the co- 

 ordination and systematisation of zoological \A'ork throughout India, which 

 will be a necessary consequence of the establishment of a zoological survey 

 in such a manner as will avoid overlapping and assist in the filling up of 

 gaps will be of considerable value to this country.
