§ LORD BALCARRES (Lancashire, N., Chorley)On behalf of the right honourable Baronet the Member for Exeter, I beg to ask the Secretary of State for India if he has received any representations from Chambers of Commerce in India with regard to the representation of India on the proposed Conference with regard to the sugar bounties; and, if so, what decision on the subject has been arrived at by Her Majesty's Government?
§ THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR INDIAThe representations described in my honourable Friend's Question have not yet reached me; but I am expecting a dispatch from the Government of India on the subject. Meanwhile the Government of India have telegraphed requesting that they may be represented at the Sugar Bounties Conference; and this will, I hope, be arranged.
