Award instituted as a result of a recommendation by the Commonwealth Section Committee, consists of a silver medal and diploma. The object of the award was to encourage the making of documentary films designed for specific public purposes in their country of origin. The award was open film production units operating in any country of the Commonwealth for the purpose of making documentary films. Films had to be submitted through the Government of the country and no country could enter more than two films.\nIn devising the award the RSA was greatly assisted by advice and help from the Colonial Office, the Commonwealth Relations Office, the Central Office of Information and the British Film Institute.
