22. Colonel WEDGWOOD

asked the Secretary of State for India whether the regulations under the Arms Act have yet been discontinued in India?

Mr. FISHER

The Government of India are about to issue revised regulations, based on the recommendations of a committee of official and non-official members of the Imperial Legislative Council. The new regulations will abolish all distinc- tions of a racial character, and will enable persons of recognised status and character to obtain licences.
