stating that it is satisfied that the consignment is required exclusively for legitimate medical or scientific purposes and will not be re-exported.

His Majesty's Government desires now to extend this system as widely as possible, and I shall be glad if you will approach the Government to which you are accredited with a view to ascertaining whether they would be prepared to enter into a similar arrangement with His Majesty's Government, without prejudice to any legislation of a stricter nature which they may introduce at a later date, in regard to their imports from the United Kingdom of medicinal opium, morphine, cocaine, heroine and their respective salts.

I would add that, in the event of any country being unwilling to adopt this proposal, His Majesty's Government may be obliged to refuse licences for the export of the drugs in question to that country.
