HC Deb 13 May 1875 vol 224 c584
MR. ALDERMAN W. M'ARTHUR

asked the Under Secretary of State for India, Whether the Indian Budget will be brought forward this Session at an earlier period than usual?

LORD GEORGE HAMILTON

Yes, Sir, it is the intention of Her Majesty's Government to bring on the Indian Budget at an earlier period than has been the custom in late years. I must add that previous Governments have shared this intention, and therefore I sincerely hope that circumstances will this year enable us to realize our intentions.
