HC Deb 01 May 1902 vol 107 cc433-4
MR. WEIR

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for India whether he can give any statistics in regard to the prevalence of cancer in India; and if not, will he cause some inquiry to be made in India, with a view to the preparation of statistics on the subject.

LORD G. HAMILTON

I have no reliable statistics with regard to the prevalence of cancer in India, but I will ascertain from the Government of India whether any information on the subject is available, or can be procured.
