No. 160 NAI DFA 332/29
Dublin, 25 July 1946
I am directed by the Minister for External Affairs to state that he would be glad to have the views of the Minister for Fin/I.&C./Agric. on the question of making application for membership of the Food and Agriculture Organisation - the FAO.
The Minister feels that the time has come at which the making of application for membership might be considered.
If the Minister for F/I.&C./Agr. agrees, perhaps the question might suitably be discussed at an inter-Departmental conference.
Minutes similar to this have been sent to the Departments of Finance/ Industry and Commerce/Agriculture.
