The commission report indicts the khedival government and suggests limiting Ismail's power as a first step in solving the country's financial problems.

The khedive accepts the commission's conditions, including a cabinet containing Europeans and the principle of ministerial responsibility.

He appoints Nubar Pasha as prime minister and asks him to form a government containing two Europeans.

Many Europeans are appointed at high salaries in various government departments; thirty British officers are appointed to the Land Survey Department alone.

Ismail is also forced to delegate governmental responsibility to his cabinet, which is made independent of the khedive and responsible for the administration of the country.
