MR. JAMES A. CAMPBELL (Glasgow and Aberdeen Universities)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for India whether he can yet say what action the Government of India have resolved to take on the subject on which representations have been made by the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland, as to insufficient provision in India of special churches or the use of garrison churches for services for Presbyterian soldiers at garrison stations.
§ LORD G. HAMILTONThe intentions of the Government of India have been fully explained in the correspondence laid before Parliament—namely, to establish equality of treatment, so far as the provision and use of churches is concerned, between the Church of England and the Church of Scotland. As regards increased accommodation it is proposed to build Presbyterian churches at Rawal Pindi, Sialkote, and Cherat. Inquiries are being instituted on this point elsewhere.
