HC Deb 02 December 1931 vol 260 c1095W
Lieut.-Colonel FREMANTLE

asked the Home Secretary whether British ratification of the 1931 Convention for the limitation of the manufacture of narcotic drugs has yet been decided upon; and, if not, when is a decision regarding ratification likely to be made?

Sir H. SAMUEL

Before His Majesty's Government can ratify this Convention, the Dangerous Drugs Acts will require amendment in certain minor respects. A Bill for this purpose is now in preparation.
