271. Changes in opium and Excise policy to be reported to Government of India.
- In order to secure harmonious working of the opium and Excise administration as a whole the Government of India desire that every Provine should keep in close and constant touch with fresh developments in other provinces so that each may know where it stands. The most convenient way of securing this object is for Province embarking on any new policy to furnish full information in regard to its intention to the Central Government who will in turn pass it on to other Provinces. To enable other provincial Governments to adjust their arrangements if necessary timely information should ordinarily be given before the changes are actually introduced. Where for any reason this course is not practicable, there should be no delay in reporting the introduction on any important change.
