§ MR. WEIR (Ross and Cromarty)To ask the Secretary of State for India whether he has received a copy of a Resolution carried at a recent meeting of the United Free Church Presbytery of Lochcarron, Ross-shire, urging that the traffic in opium between India and China should cease; and will he state what action is being taken in the matter.
§ (Answered by MR. Secretary Morley.) The Resolution was received by me, as a great number of such Resolutions have been received, and duly acknowledged. For the action that His Majesty's Government are taking on the proposals of the Chinese Government, I would refer my hon. friend to my Answer to a Question on 19th February.†
