HC Deb 23 March 1899 vol 69 c148
MR. PRICE (Norfolk, E.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for India whether he will grant a return of the mileage of railways under construction and in contemplation in India, with particulars of cost both actual and estimated; also a similar Return of waterways and irrigation works; and whether he can see his way to making this an Annual Return?

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR INDIA

I will lay on the Table a Return giving the information for which the honourable Member asks, and I think it would be well to make it an Annual Return.
