§ MR. MACLEAN (Cardiff)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for India whether he has now informed the Viceroy that Her Majesty's Government is willing to supplement the grants made for famine relief by the Government of India.
§ LORD G. HAMILTONThe statement I have made to the Viceroy is the same that I have made to the House—namely, that if the Government of India found 30 that the financial resources at their disposal were insufficient to enable them to adequately discharge the obligations they have undertaken for the relief of distress caused by famine they could rely upon help from the Imperial Government.
