MR. P. O'BRIENOn behalf of the hon. Member for the St. Patrick Division of Dublin, I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether the Government 1504 will undertake to consult the views of the Members of this House before giving consent to any fresh departure in the experiment of trying to introduce a gold standard into India?
§ THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURYThe hon. Gentleman, who put this Question on the Paper appears to be under the impression that a gold standard for India has been decided upon, but so far as I am aware that is one of the matters to be considered in the inquiry promised by my noble Friend on Tuesday last.
