§ SIR JOHN HAYasked the Secretary of State for India, If he will state what progress has been made in the works for deepening and improving the Paumban Pass, and what appropriation will be made for these works in the current financial year?
THE MARQUESS OF HARTINGTON, in reply, said, his attention had not been called to this subject until the Question of the right hon. and gallant Member appeared on the Paper. He found that no Report had been received at the India Office as to the progress of the works referred to since 1873. He would take care that information on the subject asked for should be communicated at once. He could not find any appropriation made for the works in the current Estimates.
