This paper is an amended version of: Secret drugs, cures and foods - Report of the Royal Commission on. (PP 28/1907; originally tabled on 8th August 1907). Debate on 11th September caused the original paper to be withdrawn, and reviewed by four medically qualified MPs, chaired by Charles Carty Salmon. On 20 November, they recommended a small number of changes. The printer was instructed to reprint page 9/10, removing three paragraphs, and obliterate three lines on page 15. The sections on page 10 were an intemperate attack on the Review of Reviews and Annie Besant (quoted in paragraph 7) and the lines on page 15 concern the use of whalebone or wire to induce abortions. Pages 9 and 10 were further extensively rewritten and pages 9 to 19 were completely reset. Australasian Pharmaceutical Notes & News (January, 1931) notes that "copies were recalled as far as possible and ... destroyed." A revised version of the report was tabled on 13 December."
