MR. GRANT DUFFasked the Under Secretary of State for India, Whether he can now state the outline of the arrangements that have been come to between the Government of India and the Ameer of Afghanistan; and, whether he can promise that no time will be lost in laying full information with reference to any new Treaties with the States on the West of the Indus upon the Table of the House?
§ LORD GEORGE HAMILTONNo new arrangements have as yet been come to between the Indian Government and the Ameer of Afghanistan, and I am afraid that we are not, therefore, in a position to make any statement upon the subject. Papers relating to the revision of the Khelat Treaty are on their way home, and we hope shortly to be able to lay them upon the Table of the House.
