HC Deb 22 December 1919 vol 123 cc1023-4
Colonel WEDGWOOD (by Pivate Notice)

asked the Secretary of State for India whether, pending the result of the Hunter Inquiry, Brigadier-General Dyer has been relieved of his command; and, further, whether the Secretary of State has yet received a cabled report of General Dyer's evidence given before the Commission?

The SECRETARY of STATE for INDIA (Mr. Montagu)

The answer to both parts of the question is in the negative. I may say I am in communication with the Viceroy on the whole matter.

Colonel WEDGWOOD

Obviously this is too important a question to be dealt with in supplementary questions, and, therefore, I give notice that I shall raise the subject on the Adjournment to-day.
