MR. H. J. WILSON (York, W.R., Holmfirth)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for India whether he will lay upon the Table the General Order issued by Sir George White, then Commander-in-Chief in India, dated 15th July. 1897, pointing out methods of combating the spread of venereal disease among the European troops in India, and the duty of appealing to the higher instincts of our soldiers to avoid vicious connections?

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR INDIA

I have no objection to lay upon the Table of the House a copy of the General Order issued by the Commander-in-Chief in India on the 14th July, 1897, regarding the means of checking venereal disease among the British troops in India.
