HC Deb 16 June 1910 vol 17 cc1447-8
Mr. LAURENCE HARDY

asked whether any steps have been taken recently for securing concerted action between this country and the rest of the Empire to afford greater protection to rare species of birds and to put further impediments upon the sale of the plumage of such birds?

Colonel SEELY

The Secretary of State has appointed an informal conference composed of representatives of the Colonial Office and the British Museum, to consider what steps can be taken.
