The junior and intermediate championships for 1934 were allotted to Manawatu. A letter from the British Empire Games Council contained an offer for representatives of New Zealand to attend the next Empire Games. The council would pay £IOOO toward the steamer fares and accommodation of a New Zealand- team. It was decided to circularise centres advising them of the contents of the letter, but expressing the opinion that no swimmers should be sent, as none was considered of internationl standard.
