p S.—The Government of India are anxious to secure an arrangement on
the lines advocated in paragraph /
i eleg A l T ot 8th St ‘ p ' above, and (if the complete elimination
tember 191b (Appendix A.). of th ; Freilch proves impracticable,
and a further concession is necessary to secure even the lesser alternative)
thev are prepared 1 to agree to the modification—so far as political offenders
are concerned—of British extradition rights under Article IX. of the 1 reaty
of 1815. This article requires that all persons against whom judicial
proceedings have been instituted for offences committed in British territory
shall be surrendered by the French authorities to the British Government,
and vice versa. The provision has not been enforced in regard to political
offenders for many years past ; but it is believed that the French Government
would attach some value to its formal abrogation.
