HC Deb 23 May 1927 vol 206 cc1628-9
8. Mr. JOHNSTON

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India how long it is expected the curtailed scheme now adopted in connection with the Bombay Back Bay reclamation scheme will take to complete?

Earl WINTERTON

My Noble Friend has not received any estimate of the time likely to be taken in completing the curtailed scheme, but I see that the Back Bay Inquiry Committee urged in their Report that every endeavour should be made to complete the larger scheme they proposed in three or four years.
