The Commission to administer the affairs in the New Hebrides will consist of a President and two British and two French officers. Each nationality is to furnish a President monthly. The Commission is to assemble whenever any disturbance arises at the islands, ; and no military or naval measures can be carried on without first having obtained the sanction of the Commission, i In matters of urgency the nearest commander shall act in concert; but, if that is not possible, action may be taken separately. Such action must be reported to the senior officer, who will await the Commissioners' orders. The powers granted to the Commission do not extend to land disputes.'
