The treaty enabling recruitment of workers from British India was ratified on 10 February 1872, allowing recruitment to proceed. Workers were promised return passage, medical care, and limits on working time. Actual plantation conditions were harsh, and formal terms did not erase the unequal colonial setting in which choices were made.
