§ MR.O'DOWD (Sligo, S.)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for India whether a Press censorship has recently been established by the Government of India under which system correspondents are prevented from transmitting any item of news unfavourable to the Indian Government; and, if so, will he state the circumstances under which such a state of affairs has arisen, and say what steps, if any, he proposes to take in the matter.
§ MR. BRODRICKI have no information as to the establishment of such a system as is described in the hon. Member's Question.
§ MR. FLYNN (Cork, N.)Will the right hon. Gentleman inquire?
§ MR. BRODRICKI ought to have first some prima facie case to inquire into.
§ MR. SWIFT MACNEILL (Donegal, S.)Is the right hon. Gentleman on telegraphic terms with Lord Curzon?
