4 Moreover, a common procedure is for ICA to have its own building, in which experts have their offices and report to the Director of the Mission. They advise the Director on his capital assistance program as well as advising the host government on its policy. With such an arrangement, it is almost inevitable that people in the recipient countries will link aid to advice, even if ICA officials do everything in their power to keep them apart. The usual practice with United Nations, Colombo Plan, or ICA-contract advisers, on the contrary, is for them to have their desks in that department of the host government which they are assisting, and to advise no government other than the recipient one.
