Dear Lloyd,
India Office
The department of the British Government to which the Government of India reported between 1858 and 1947. The successor to the Court of Directors.
,
White Hall, London,
30th August 1935.
I enclose copy of a letter from Sir Malcolm
Delevingne who, as you know, was formerly an Under Secretary
of State at the Home Office and is now a member of the League
of Nations Supervisory Body under the Drugs Limitation Con
vention of 1931, raising certain questions as to the treatment
of such places as Bahrain and Nepal for the purpose of the
Opium and Drugs Conventions of 1925 and 1931.
Would you kindly let me know, no doubt after consulting
the foreign and Political Department, what reply it is re
commended should be sent to Delevingne.
We should be glad of a very early reply because, as
you will see, Delevingne would like to know how the matter
stands before the Supervisory Body meets again at the begin
ning of October, and we shall probably want t o refer to the rnk
Political Department here, after receiving your reply, before
we send it on.
Yours sincerely,
Sd. W.D. Tomkins.
