HC Deb 04 August 1896 vol 43 c1452
MR. SAMUEL SMITH (Flintshire)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for India will he explain whether the Government of India are officially promoting the foundation there of a Pasteur Institute, or whether the Indian Medical Department is doing so; and, if so, by whose authority?

LORD GEORGE HAMILTON

I have no information later than 1894, when the Government of India reported that they had promised, subject to certain conditions, the services of a Medical Officer to the Pasteur Institute, which they explained was quite distinct from any Government Department.
