HC Deb 05 March 1936 vol 309 c1563
67. Mr. HALL-CAINE

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether his attention has been called to the increasing sale in this country of Mexican reefer cigarettes made from a weed called mairjuana which acts as a drug; and whether any duty is charged on these cigarettes?

The FINANCIAL SECRETARY to the TREASURY (Mr. W. S. Morrison)

I am not aware that Mexican reefer cigarettes made from mairjuana are being imported and sold in this country, but if my hon. Friend will furnish me with particulars of any case he may have in mind, I will have further inquiry made.
