§ SIR ALEXANDER GORDONasked the Under Secretary of State for India, Whether he will now lay upon the Table of the House a Copy of the Schedule annexed to the Treaty of Peace concluded at Gandamak on the 26th May 1879, omitted from the Paper laid before Parliament on the 1st July 1879; and, whether he will lay upon the Table of the House a sketch map showing the limits of the districts assigned to the British Government for protection and administrative control, as defined in the schedule above mentioned?
§ MR. E. STANHOPESir, we have not received the Schedule in question from India. The House will probably recollect that the precise limits of the districts assigned to the British Govorn- 148 ment for protection and administrative control were to be defined by a Commission; but from the unfortunate events of September last it is very probable that the work has not been completed; but as soon as a sketch map showing the limits can be laid upon the Table I shall be happy to do it. As to the Schedule, I am not quite sure whether it has been actually prepared, because it depended upon the limits fixed by the Boundary Commission.
