HC Deb 06 March 1893 vol 9 cc1087-8
MR. CAINE

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for India if he will cause the Administrative Reports of the various Provinces of British India to be placed in the Library of the House of Commons?

MR. GEORGE RUSSELL

Copies of the Administrative Reports of the several Indian Governments and Administrations used to be sent to the Library of the House of Commons, but this practice was discontinued after 1875–76, in consequence of representations received from the Librarian of the House of Commons as to the large amount of space which these books occupied. Copies of future Reports can, however, be supplied if there is any general wish to that effect.
