An important Act was passed in 1923, under which the maximum penalty for an offence against the law is now £1000 or ten years, or both, when the case is taken on indictment; or, when dealt with summarily in an ordinary Police Court, a £250 fine or twelve months' hard labour, or both. The British Government in their report also notify the League that, as a result of investigations made by the Home Office into the operations of various illicit traffickers, no import licences will in future be issued by them to Swiss and German firms which have supplied smuggled drugs. This information is to be sent to all other Governments, since, in the opinion of the Opium Advisory Committee, smuggling can be kept in check by the full and rapid interchange of details of illegal traffic.

There is to be a preliminary conference in Geneva, on 3rd November, of all States with Far Eastern territories, to consider the necessary measures for carrying out more effectively, especially as regards China, Part II. of the Hague Opium Convention of 1912. The second and larger conference, to which all members and nonmembers of the League have been invited, will follow immediately afterwards. The United States and Germany, both outside the League, will be represented.
