There is, however, one point with regard to which we must insist on a slight modification of the proposed agreement as a condition of our adherence to it. Considerable quantities of these drugs are imported as Government medical stores for re-export to countries outside India where Indian troops, political officers, etc., are employed. In these circumstances, it would not be possible for us to certify of any consignment imported on Government account that it is not for re-export, as a portion of it might well be re-exported. We therefore pro- pose that in respect of consignments imported by a Government department on Government account the certificate which will accompany the indent for supply should contain no assurance that the consignment will not be re- exported.

We have the honour to be,

SIR,

Your most obedient, humble Servants,

(Signed) CHELMSFORD.
