Mr. PENNY

asked the President of the Board of Trade the amount of duty collected at the full and preferential rate in respect of the commodities to which Imperial Preference applies for the year 1923–26?

Mr. RONALD McNEILL

I have been asked to reply. The information desired by my hon. Friend is given in the following table:

agencies and institutions for research. The measures undertaken include the destruction of breeding places of mosquitoes by oiling and drainage etc., the prohibition of rice cultivation near certain towns, jungle cutting, propaganda work, the formation of anti-malarial co-operative societies, and the systematic distribution of quinine at low prices. At the same time the area under cinchona cultivation is being steadily increased with the object of making India self-supporting in the matter of quinine.
