§ SIR DAVID WEDDERBURNasked the Under Secretary of State for India, Whether it is the case that payments made by officers residing in England on account of donations and subscriptions to Indian Military Funds are charged at rates exceeding by twelve and a half per cent similar payments made by officers residing in India; and, whether the benefits accruing to subscribers in both cases are the same; and, if so, what is the cause for so great an inequality of payments?
MR. GRANT DUFFSir, the variations in the rules, subscriptions, and benefits of the several Indian military funds are so great that it is impossible to give an answer to a Question so general in its nature; but if the hon. Member will communicate with me about any particular fund, I can obtain for him all the information he can desire.
