5- Reports on the results of enquiries or experimental investigations are supplied, 
as a rule, without charge, when applied for as above directed, but, should special 
expenses be incurred in connection with any such reports, or with the commercial 
valuation of particular materials or manufactured products, which the Council do not 
consider themselves warranted in meeting, a statement of such actual outlays will be 
furnished, for repayment, when the reports are supplied to the Public Bodies or 
Institutions concerned. Should an investigation or report of exceptional character be 
asked for by a Government Department, an estimate of the attendant expenses will be 
submitted, with a view to ascertain whether authority for such expenditure will be given. 
[The attention of those who are concerned in finding new markets for Indian and 
Colonial products may be also directed to the collections of products exhibited in the 
Galleries of the Imperial Institute, illustrating the material resources of the Colonies 
and Dependencies of the Empire. They represent upwards of forty different countries, 
and are open free to the public. On application to the Commercial Information Office 
of the Institute, or to the Curators of individual Sections of the Collections, all available 
information is furnished regarding any particular product exhibited in the Galleries, and 
samples are supplied in special instances to merchants and others. Enquiries as to 
possible supplies (and their probable cost) in any specific case, or for other special 
information desired, are dealt with promptly, if made in writing to the Honorary 
Director of the Institute. The assistance of the Government Authorities of the 
Colonies is invoked to ensure that the Collections of natural and manufactured products, 
and full information regarding their contents, shall be maintained up to the day].
